Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz could in a courtroom soon.

The former operators of Emerald South nursing home released a statement saying that they plan on suing Poloncarz for statements he made during a news conference and on social media earlier this year.

On August 23rd during a news conference, Poloncarz called for the State Department of Health to force another company to take over running the nursing home after two patients died and claims of abuse surfaced.
