California briefs in Seattle trial date confusion
In Seattle to Vancouver transfer, Superior Court Judge Gaines says Sept. 13 is the targeted start date for jury selection in a $2.3 million civil suit tied to San Tancigo Mayor Joseph Alvito.

O Connell, and Seattle attorney George K. Faler. The suit seeks legal fees from the state and 12 public utility districts over an electrical antitrust matter, alleging a concealed fee sharing arrangement.
