New Trial Hearing Opened Over Ellis Library Dispute
The motion for a new trial by Irene Ellis in a suit with the University of Kansas over Ralph Ellis library ownership opened before District Judge Hugh Means. Attorneys argued for clarifications to Means findings, focusing on Ellis behavior, December death, and a 144 price point, while competition over competency and a California location influenced proceedings. A key exception was Irene Ellis who remained in California as local and California attorneys argued the case.
