WESTRIDGE HEARING POSTPONED
In July 2007, the CEQA lawsuit against the City of Redding and the developers of Westridge was assigned to Judge Jahr. Briefs and responses to briefs were filed and a motion to add documents to the record were ruled on by Judge Jahr. Then, when the case was to be heard on Jan. 23, 2008, Judge Jahr recused himself. That means another judge must be assigned and that will not be done until late Feb. 2008.
