Pennsylvania Supreme Court to Look Again at $80,000 Fees Imposed on Greens in 2006
March 16th, 2009

According to Pennsylvania attorney Larry Otter, on March 16 the Pennsylvania Supreme Court agreed to rehear the matter of whether the Green Party’s 2006 U.S. Senate nominee must pay approximately $80,000 to the people who challenged his petition. Apparently the State Supreme Court is willing to rethink the matter because of last year’s revelations that the people who challenged both Nader in 2004 and the Green Party in 2006 illegally used state employees and state resources to prepare their petition challenges.
