- Group FixExpo [1], created and headed by Damien Goodmon, is currently in a legal battle with the Expo Construction Authority [2], trying to stop the construction of the line (see, e.g., one of his latest legal filings [3], among the numerous).
- It is highly unethical for FixExpo to make edits on the LACMTA Expo Line article, given its direct legal interest and lawsuit against the Expo Construction Authority, who is constructing the light-rail line.
