Ohio Bell Seeks Rate Rehearing Before Supreme Court
Ohio Bell asks for a rehearing after the Ohio Utilities Commission denied more time to reconsider a Dec. 26 order. The commission postponed the effective date of the rate cut pending court decision while Ohio Bell contends the tariff reduction is unlawful and confiscates property. The case traces back to a 1947 rate base reduction and a 1949 revenue increase ruling by the Supreme Court.
