AZ Supreme Court keeps case alive against county transportation
The Arizona Supreme Court may look further at a lawsuit that could impact State Route 347.
This week, the court opted to continue the case of Vangilder et al. v. ADOR/Pinal County et al., which has put funding of road-improvement projects in limbo. Goldwater Institute attorneys filed suit against Pinal County Regional Transportation Authority soon after voters approved Prop 417 three years ago.
Arizona Tax Court ruled against the county RTA and the Department of Revenue, but the Division I Court of Appeals overturned that decision. Goldwater attorney Timothy Sandefur filed his intent to appeal to the Supreme Court in February.
