State of Alaska moves to strike part of DCC’s appeal of Healy Basin Gas Exploration Finding
On September 7, 2011, the State of Alaska moved to eliminate one of the arguments in our initial appeal, filed on August 26, 2011, of the Healy Basin Gas Exploration Final Best Interest Finding. Our attorney, Peter Van Tuyn, filed an opposition to the motion on September 20, 2011. The judge will rule on the state’s motion soon, and after his ruling, the State of Alaska will have 20 days to file its opening brief.
Further delays and legal wranglings could occur. When all parties have completed their briefs and motions, the judge will then consider the arguments and make his decision. The review and final decision could take several months.
