Title: Hawthorne might sue the IHHA and ITHA for money owed owed to them.

The interesting rumor I heard down in Springfield a few days ago was that one of Hawthorne's strategies to help them get out of their financial dilemma would be to sue the IHHA for around $4 million and the ITHA for around $17 million, the amounts that Hawthorne has overpaid the horsemen the past several years. That's over $21 million the horsemen OWE Hawthorne.

That would make the nightmare worse. Desperate people do desperate things.
