Complaint to trial in less than 60 days

With a prompt adjudication on the merits crucial to the development of a $250 million wind farm project, the Firm persuaded a federal court to set a merits trial less than two months after the case was filed. At trial, the court found that in this instance, the proposed wind farm would not interfere with the plaintiff’s reasonable use of the surface estate to explore and develop its mineral interest and defeated the plaintiff’s request for a permanent injunction.
