FALSE ALARM

The case of FABRE VS. TOWN OF RUSTON was not heard today. Apparently the judge had a divorce case or Steve Fabre, Point Defiance Cafe and Casino, vs Ruston and chose to hear the divorce case.

This left a lot of subpoenaed witnesses cooling their heels in the corridor. Some had to take the day off and in one case the Town of Ruston will have to pay per diem as well as mileage.

The best I can ascertain is the case is on hold and next week they are on call subject to half hour notice. Very hard on witnesses who have been subpoenaed. How they can accomplish all this I do not know but motions and jury selection precede the trial.

Interestingly the four council persons associated with the cabal never showed up? Inside information or? Kind of fishy and very expensive to both sides.

Stay tuned.
