Cautious optimism at Cal
By Jonathan Okanes
Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008 at 6:41 pm in off-season stuff.
It appears Judge Barbara Miller has rendered her judgment in the consolidated cases against Cal’s proposed construction of a new student-athlete facility, and the school appears to have won. I’ve talked to a couple of folks in the athletic department tonight and they aren’t doing cartwheels quite yet, however. The ruling is still being evaluated by university attorneys, but it appears Judge Miller ruled that the injunction against constructing the facility will expire one week from today. The wild care appears to be whether the plaintiffs can get an appeal filed. That is the issue I will try to find out more about as soon as possible.

Off topic: IT LOOKS LIKE CAL WON THE COURT CASE THIS AFTERNOON: http://apps.alameda.courts.ca.gov/domainweb/service?ServiceName=DomainWebService&PageName=itree&Action=21680593
I’m no attorney, but it sounds like the concessions Cal must make in order for us to proceed on the SAHPC are the same concessions we made going into last week’s hearing:
-remove the beam from memorial
-don’t alter memorial staircases
-alter non-football events to a case-by-case consideration method
In all other aspects related to the A-P Act, the judge seemed to rule in our favor.
