Third West Fertilizer trial delayed until May; judge denies request to change venue

摘要

A request by defendants in the West Fertilizer case to move the next trial to another county has been denied by the presiding judge. The upcoming trial, currently set for May 16, is the third scheduled in the case. Out-of-court settlements were reached in the first West trial last October (GM Oct. 19, 2015), and again in the second trial in late January 2016.
