The Minneapolis Police case will now go before a federal court to decide.

It doesn’t look like the five Minneapolis Police officers who were about to divvy up a $2 million settlement from a racial-discrimination lawsuit will get that cash any time soon. On Thursday, the City Council kicked the deal to the curb by refusing to vote on the settlement. The next step for the lawsuit is federal court, and that won’t happen until next year. The plaintiffs in the case say that they were passed over for promotions because of their race. All parties have been ordered by a judge to keep quiet about the particulars of the case, including why the deal collapsed.
