Litigation files, 1975-2004.

Litigation files dealing with Governor Rudy Perpich's 1987 complaint against the U.S. Department of Defense challenging the Montgomery Amendment (which allowed Congress to authorize members of the National Guard to be ordered to active federal duty for purposes of training outside the United States without either the consent of a State Governor or the declaration of a national emergency); with a 1986 suit brought by John Allers, a former Public Employees Retirement Association [PERA] Board member and interim executive director, against Paul Hayne (former PERA employee), Morris Anderson (former PERA trustee), and the Association of Minnesota Counties, claiming that the defendants defamed Allers as a result of their efforts to expose Allers' alleged mismanagement of PERA; and with a 1985 suit brought by Attorney General Hubert Humphrey III, on behalf of the state and PERA, to recover expenditures of monies made to C. Michael McLaren as PERA executive director from 1979 to 1984. The latter case originated in the Solicitor General's office but was placed with these files due to the related subject matter. There are also files documenting the Minnesota Historical Society's efforts to save the Minneapolis Armory from demolition (1990-1993); James I. Rice's, a member of the Minnesota Legislature, suit against Ladbroke Racing Canterbury, Inc., et al., and the Minnesota Racing Commission over the legality of off-track and telephone betting (1982-1992): and a suit concerning misuse of funds brought by the Greater Minnesota Corporation (in cooperation with the Attorney General) against its former president and chief executive officer, Terry Montgomery (1987-1993).

When Archibald G. Bush died on January 16, 1966, he left the bulk of his estate to the Bush Foundation, a non-profit charitable corporation incorporated on February 24, 1953. He names Herschel S. Arrowood and Mary Jane Dickman as executors. A power struggle soon developed over control both of administration of the estate and of the Bush Foundation itself.
