In a letter released to reporters by the Hogan administration late Thursday, the governor asked Attorney General Brian Frosh “to immediately proceed” with a new legal strategy: petitioning a higher court (the U.S. Court of Appeals, in this case) for a writ of mandamus.
The move is designed to compel U.S. District Judge Richard Leon to make a ruling in the Purple Line case.
The writ would not indicate which way Leon should rule. In strict legal terms, it simply orders the lower court to do its duty: issue a ruling in the Purple Line suit.

Get off the dime, already, and put this one to the next level, whatever it may be.
ReplyDeleteThis money designated for this Purple line is a waste of money. This money should be used across the State to improve the roads / bridges statewide and make Rt 401 completely dual. Why is 80% + money is spent on the Baltimore / DC corridor? The Shore has to put up with these idiots so why don't we get more of the money?
ReplyDeleteHA, like the ICC has generated anything for the state. Come on now - most important things are revenue generators (Sports and Gambling) 2 pro Football teams (yes Redskins play in PG County), 1 MLB team, several minor league teams and the most important item (haha purple line) - How many Casino's?
