Ind. Courts - State Road 135 land annexation dispute before Supreme Court today
The Johnson County Daily Journal has made available the briefs in one of the three cases the Supreme Court heard oral argument on today, City of Greenwood v. Town of Bargersville, noting:
Justices will hear arguments from attorneys representing Bargersville and Greenwood about who should be able to annex land along State Road 135 considered ripe for residential and business development.Here are the briefs, via the Daily Journal (unfortunately, its coverage of the argument today is behind a paywall):
Beyond Johnson County, the decision by the high court is expected to have implications concerning how all Indiana cities and towns can extend sewers and annex land.
The road to the Supremes has been pricey. Combined, legal fees are nearing three-quarters of a million dollars.
From Bargersville: Brief 1. Brief 2.
From Greenwood: Brief 1.
From other groups supporting Bargersville: Brief 1.
