D.C. Government Sues Don Peebles

In a complaint filed on Nov. 10, 2010, the District of Columbia says developer Don Peebles overcharged the city by $1.2 million. The District rents office space from Peebles on Martin Luther King Avenue SE, but the complaint says the city was charged for events as far away as Miami and political contributions to Marion Barry, Jack Evans and Michael A. Brown.
