Rhode Island

Lawmakers' $9.97 billion spending plan includes $200 million in Garvee bonds for I-95 in Providence but not Gov. Gina Raimondo's call to legalize cannabis.

The judge ruled for Peter Cannava, who had denied wrongdoing even after Wells Fargo and other defendants settled charges.

The $42 million sale comes as water infrastructure is emerging as a priority priority for municipal issuers.

The Garvee bonds would fund the reconstruction of the stretch through downtown Providence.

Thirty-five local plans carry a combined unfunded liability of roughly $2.5 billion, a slight increase from last year, a state report says.

The court shouldn't accept banker Peter Cannava's "narrow and cramped view of materiality,” the SEC urged.

Seth Magaziner's strategies mingle school construction borrowing and debt-management sessions with victims compensation, college savings and a small-business program.

Cannava argues that emails, witness statements, and other evidence cast doubt on the SEC's claims that he acted recklessly.

Fallout from a decision against Warwick, Rhode Island's two-tiered firefighter system raises red flags, says pension expert James Spiotto.

Banker Peter Cannava may be left to battle on alone, after the Securities and Exchange Commission and Wells Fargo told a federal court they have an agreement.
