A month ago there was a dreadful decision where the Appellate Court tossed out Buy the Farm decisions regarding applicability of Ch. 117 condemnation law in Minnesota:

Wright County Order – July 13, 2011

Buy the Farm – NSP v. Aleckson, Pudas, Hanson, et al.

The Appellate Court decision shouldn’t stand, so many landowners would be detrimentally affected.

The two groups of landowners working up through the court system on Buy the Farm are now Petitioning the Supreme Court — these were filed Wednesday:

Northern States Power v. Roger Aleckson, et al. – Hanson and Stich Petition

Northern States Power v. Aleckson, et al. – Enos and Pudas Petition
