Three Judges Hear Fertilizer Freight Case in Georgia
A group of 29 Georgia short line railroads filed an equity suit in federal court asking to block the Georgia Public Service Commission from enforcing a fertilizer freight reduction order that went into effect November 14. Judge Samuel H. Sibley refused a temporary injunction and ordered the suit filed, with a three judge hearing set for an early date. The carriers allege the rate cut, averaging 20 to 26 percent, harms their property rights and cites lack of hearings or factual basis for the order. The petition names the 20 plaintiffs represented by Alston, Alston, Foster & Moise.
