Gage County will appeal Beatrice 6 ruling to US Supreme Court
BEATRICE — Gage County plans to appeal the Beatrice 6 case to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Wednesday, the county board met for nearly two hours in closed session with attorneys in the case before deciding to appeal a recent decision by the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals.
County Board Chairman Myron Dorn said the county has a seven-day stay on the $28.1 million judgment and is going to ask for an extension while the county appeals. He speculated it would be several months before a decision is made if the appeal is successful.
Gage County has spent more than $1.76 million in legal fees fighting the case. Dorn said that despite the hefty price tag, the county is examining every option in the case.
