CMPA attorney comments on Bell ruling

   March 3, 2009

Ed Fleming, who represented the Community Maritime Park Associates, has issued this statement on Judge Frank Bell’s ruled in favor of the CMPA:

Judge Bell did precisely what a judge’s oath requires him to do;he applied the law as written by the legislature to the facts before the Court. He followed the law. When that happens, the system works as designed. I am very pleased with the Court’s ruling, and fully expected this outcome from the inception of the case.

I particular appreciate the Court’s prompt ruling, as the action, although baseless, nonetheless placed a cloud over all of the actions of the CMPA until it was resolved.
