Injunction Denied In Seymour Go Kart Case
Judge John M. Lewis in Jackson Circuit Court denied a temporary injunction sought by Seymour board of zoning appeals against Elmer R. Nicholson and June V. Nicholson. The ruling found the go kart activity to be a backyard neighborhood pastime, not a public or semi public track, and questioned whether the zoning ordinance fringe area had been properly filed. The decision cited issues of filing and authentication of documents and sustained objections to three plaintiff exhibits.
