I can't take credit, I broadcast and provide tech support. The fire service and the coalitions, PA (Tx John and Tim!) and national, and their support teams won the battle with a long list of help including Ed Mann, our fire commissioner.
They'll continue the lawsuit, technically what they lost was an attempt at emergency injunctive relief. However, the judge's decision included wording that notes the passage of the 2006 codes they want to roll back to was passed in a similar manner, so it would, too, be unconstitutional. So that doesn't give them much to stand on when they continue. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Cliff Whitfield Sent: Thursday, March 11, 2010 11:01 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: PA BUILDERS LOSE INJUNCTION- SPKRS STAY IN PA CODE !!!
