Re-scheduled Court hearing on Richardson Grove case in SF needs support: Please attend on Nov. 17

::<>::<>::<>::<>::<>::<>::::<>::<>::<>::<>::<>::<>::::<>::<>::

First of all, THANK YOU to those of you who came to court on Nov. 10. As so often happens, the hearing was continued, and we didn’t find out until we were there. The hearing is taking place this Wednesday, Nov. 17 at 9:30 am. If you can come to show support for the great legal team who filed suit against Caltrans concerning their highway-widening project through Richardson Grove State Park, it would help! Caltrans has filed a change of venue motion, opposed by our environmental attorneys, and it will be argued in SF Superior Court, Dept. 301 (3rd floor), 400 McAllister St. (at Polk) It is very near Civic Center BART.

It is especially difficult to get people out on a weekday morning, so if you are able to come, your presence will be especially valuable. It is likely to be short hearing.

This case for the redwoods in Richardson Grove has a fantastic legal team, so it should be an interesting session. Attorneys representing EPIC and the Center for Biological Diversity will be present.

You can call the BACH office if you have questions. We hope you can attend.
