Bridges Civil Case Moves Forward | Jackson News

The NCUAB is refusing to delay its civil case against former Jackson Area Federal Credit Union CEO Leigh Bridges, arguing that her likely guilty plea makes a pause unnecessary—and costly. Allegations say she, her husband Chad, and Tina Funez embezzled $95 million, leaving the credit union in deep deficit. The NCUAB faces mounting expenses storing seized assets—including a Steinway piano—and seeks a court-appointed trustee to manage them. Talks of a settlement offering Bridges a living allowance in exchange for property have stalled, as Chad refuses to sign over homes unless his retirement funds are freed. With real estate and vehicles unlikely to cover the shortfall, the NCUAB insists moving forward is essential to recover losses and protect assets.
