Last week, U.S. District Court Judge Richard Bennett had before him a proposed scheduling order that included a start date no earlier than Sept. 18, 2017 for the trial in the federal suit aimed at resolving the alleged rules violation of the winner of the white marlin category in the 2016 WMO and the distribution of the $2.8 million in prize money. The proposed scheduling order included the September 2017 trial date, which would have left the case lingering over the 2017 WMO.
However, last Friday, Bennett issued an “etched in stone” scheduling order with a start date for the trial set for May 22, 2017. Essentially, the judge altered the scheduling order in part to ensure the legal proceedings would be resolved well before the 2017 WMO one way or the other. The trial has now been laid in for four days beginning May 22.

Did they eat the fish?
The money should be donated to Ocearch.org.
This prize money should be donated to the needy so we can shut these greedy people down.
Whole thing should be shut down. All they do is kill sport fish that should be catch and release only. Rich white people trying show off and who can spend the most money on boats and gear to kill fish.
I went......once. Drunk people standing around yelling at dead fish was what it amounts to. The idea that it's "rich" people is silly. Trust me anyone rich isn't standing around yelling at dead fish. They are at horse shows and polo competitions.
God gave us fish to eat. Also cows and chickens and the like. So unless you eat nothing but vegetables you got no room to condemn eating fish and meat.
Did god say you cant eat horses and dogs? They are animals. Some fish are are designated as sport fish and should be caught and released to preserve the species. Others like cod, tuna and salmon are eating fish. No one is condemning eating fish or meat but you sound like one of those "i just need to argue about something" people that takes a simple statement out of context. Fishing tournaments have nothing to do with eating fish.
