http://lawrencewasden.com/images/schoolbus.jpg//localhost/political/images/political2.jpg(Boise) – Attorney General Lawrence Wasden today asked the Idaho Supreme Court to block the renewal of leases on Payette Lake and Priest Lake endowment lands. In documents filed with the court, Wasden argues that the lease rates approved by the Idaho Land Board last week are too low and illegally favor current leaseholders at the expense of public schools, higher education and State Hospital South.

The 355 cottage sites at Priest Lake are located on public school endowment lands. There are 167 cottage sites at Payette Lake. Of these cottage sites, two are located on public school endowment lands, 56 on normal school endowment lands and 109 on state hospital endowment lands.

(Boise) – Idaho consumers will receive restitution payments as a result of a legal settlement agreement with LifeLock, Inc., an identity theft protection provider located in Tempe, Arizona, Attorney General Lawrence Wasden said today. The settlement, with the Federal Trade Commission and 35 states, stems from an investigation into the company’s alleged misleading advertising practices.

“Through the cooperative efforts of the FTC and state attorneys general, consumers who experienced problems with LifeLock’s services will receive restitution,” Attorney General Wasden said.
The FTC and states will send letters to eligible consumers, notifying them of the agreement and how they can opt-in to the settlement. LifeLock agreed to pay $11 million in restitution to consumers and $1 million to the states to cover the costs of their investigation.
