One of the 35 line-item vetoes that whittled down the 2008-2009 budget bill may land the Manchin administration in court, Public Broadcasting reports.
"Disability advocates are angry with Governor Manchin for vetoing language in the state budget regarding in-home care for mentally retarded and developmentally disabled people," the report said.
Update: The Associated Press also has a story, focusing on Wednesday's court filing seeking enforcement of a 2000 federal compliance order.
