ORAL ARGUMENT BEFORE THE SUPREME COURT
IN ENBRIDGE v. DANE CO. HAS BEEN POSTPONED.
CHECK BACK FOR THE NEW DATE!

Oral Argument Before the WI Supreme Court
Enbridge v. Dane County
Tuesday, January 22, 2019, 1:30 PM

The Wisconsin State Supreme Court has agreed to review the case of Enbridge v. Dane County. The case involves whether Enbridge must buy clean-up insurance for its pipeline network in Dane County. Clean-up insurance would guarantee that, if the pipeline leaks or explodes, there would be money to properly remediate damage to land, water, and other property. Oral argument in the case was originally scheduled for January 22, 2019. However, the clerk’s office has taken the case off the court’s January 2019 calendar, stating that it will be rescheduled to a later date. Stay tuned!
