(2000 ed. and Supp. III), and its accompanying regulations. In October 1996, the District Court held that the District was liable under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 for violating federal Medicaid requirements.

The District Court adopted the agreement with an order issued on January 25, 1999. Salazar v. District of Columbia, Civ. Action No. 93-452, Order Modifying the Amended Remedial Order of May 6, 1997 and Vacating the Order of March 27, 1997 at 1-49 (D.D.C.
