DETROIT (AP) — Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan testified in federal court Monday that the city has a feasible strategy with the resources it needs to successfully emerge from bankruptcy protection but said that the plan is also contingent on the wider economy and other outside forces.

Duggan appeared before U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Steven Rhodes as lawyers representing Detroit wrapped up their case Monday with testimony from City Council President Brenda Jones. Rhodes still needs to hear from his own expert, and other witnesses could be summoned.
