The Public Lands Council has issued a Petition for Writ of Certiorari, asking the United States Supreme Court to review the United States Court of Appeals decision to reverse Bush-era grazing regulations.
After a 2007 victory, the livestock industry appealed to the Ninth Circuit United States Court of Appeals. Not only did the Court reaffirm our previous victory, it strengthened the decision. Now the Public Lands Council is asking the United States Supreme Court to review the Ninth Circuit decision.
Advocates for the West is representing Western Watersheds Project, Ralph Maughan, Idaho Wildlife Federation, Idaho Conservation League, Natural Resources Defense Council, and the National Wildlife Federation in this case.
