Arguments on continuing injunctions against Scranton Gas and Water
Judge Gunster heard arguments in chambers over the city of Scranton continuing preliminary injunctions against Scranton Gas and Water and Yoranton Gas and Water. The dispute centers on the city's power to require permits and deposits before laying pipes on streets, with both sides presenting charter and police power considerations. The case affects how streets are opened and regulated and whether the city can compel permits and fees under its ordinance.
