The U.S. Department of Justice is being sued over its refusal to publicly disclose a $2 million nonprosecution agreement it reached with a Houston-based tree services company that employed undocumented workers.
The U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Texas issued a news release in May 2012 revealing the deal between prosecutors and ABC Professional Tree Services Inc. The company agreed to forfeit $2 million in revenue from the use of undocumented workers between 2006 and 2011, DOJ officials said.
