Indiana Courts - State Supreme Court names special judge to hear arguments over Posey courthouse
"State Supreme Court names special judge to hear arguments over Posey courthouse" is the headline to this story today in the Evansville Star-Press. Some quotes:
The Indiana Supreme Court has appointed a special judge to hear arguments in a dispute among Posey County officials on the county courthouse.Superior Court Judge Dean Sobecki of Daviess County, Ind., will preside over an order filed by one of his peers - Posey Circuit Court Judge James Redwine - who is seeking renovations and security upgrades to the 128-year-old building.
Redwine filed the mandate June 2, claiming the aging courthouse lacks handicap accessibility, modern security features and sufficient space to file and store records.
The mandate ordered the Posey County Commissioners and County Council to include funding to renovate the courthouse in its 2005 budget.
