The DLNR has extended its contract with Judge Amano until the end of the year, it was previously set to expire on June 30th. This is a bad sign for the TMT, which wants to restart construction this time next year. Remember, there will be appeals and another possible contested case hearing starting sometime in the near future. It also outlines the costs of just hiring a judge for a redo because the BLNR and DLNR couldn't get it right the first time.
