The United States Attorney’s Office asks Court to dismiss the Indictment against an Agility Subsidiary 

 

28 July 2010

 

The United States Attorney's Office in Atlanta moved to dismiss the Indictment against Holdings, an Agility subsidiary yesterday.  While the prosecutors' motives for seeking this dismissal at this time are unknown, this request for dismissal comes after motions filed by Holdings to discover the government's evidence against it, including but not limited to the Price Negotiation Memoranda, a set of exculpatory materials that the government has  worked tirelessly to conceal from the public for over three years.

As we have consistently maintained since the outset of this litigation, this case should never have been brought in the first place in a criminal court.  This case is, at most, a civil contract dispute over the interpretation of a contract drafted by the government.

One thing that has always been crystal clear is that Agility has provided-- and continues to provide-- exceptional service to our troops and superior value to US taxpayers, working for seven years in a war zone on the largest US military subsistence procurement contract in history.  The food contract is one of nearly 130 US Government contracts and tenders by Agility and its affiliated companies.

We remain committed to attempting to resolve this civil contract dispute so that the distraction of litigation is removed and we can continue to focus on our business, including providing the excellent service to the troops that they have come to expect from us."
