Opponents of the $4 billion Atlantic Yards project planned for Brooklyn are filing a new lawsuit against the state and developer Forest City Ratner.

If successful, the opponents could push the Spitzer administration to do a new review of the project, which was approved late last year before Governor Pataki left office.

The suit challenges the state’s environmental impact statement, according to a project opponent, Daniel Goldstein.
