The group trying to preserve Over-the-Rhine's Emery Theatre is suing the University of Cincinnati.

The Requiem Project wants to rehab the symphony hall and argues UC, which owns the property, misused grant funds meant for fixing the theater.

The 11 count lawsuit includes breach of contact, fraud and negligence allegations, and a request for a declaratory judgment in Requiem's favor.
