That would be a A Civil Action, also starring William H. Macy and Tony Shaloub (Monk). The story took place in Woburn, Massachusetts about the contaminated water supply from a leather tannery. Great flick!

and returning to the topic at hand...Florida requires level II background checks (whatever that means) of anyone coming in contact with students. The results of the checks are viewed & administered by the local school board only and officials foot the hefty bill (about $65 every 5 years). As a result, other organizations (rec leagues, churches) assume that if an official is registered and working for our state/local association, then they must be "clean". Right or wrong, it saves them the hassle.
