Proposed Subpoena Targets Birmingham Mayor's Wife in Nebius Data Center Lawsuit

Residents opposing Nebius' planned hyperscale data center in Birmingham have sought subpoenas involving Mayor Randall Woodfin's wife, Kendra Woodfin, and her real estate firm as part of a lawsuit over the project's land transactions and permits. The litigation continues while construction proceeds, following the city's approval of tax incentives and new data center zoning restrictions, as well as a six-month moratorium that officials said did not apply to Nebius.
