While state Attorney General Kathleen Kane has been locked in high-profile litigation with the lawyers for ex-Penn State president Graham Spanier for more than a year, it now appears that both sides have at least one thing in common: They have both recently called into question the work of former Chief Deputy Attorney General Frank Fina.

According to attorneys who spoke with the Law Weekly, the case Spanier filed against Kane in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania last month seeking to end a prosecution stemming from the Jerry Sandusky child sex-abuse scandal was the first filing related to the case to have brought Fina’s name to the forefront of the litigation.
