A tough start for Greenpeace in battle with a pipeline giant

Greenpeace’s significant trial of Greenpeace in the case of a perennial case with energy transfer, a perennial claim of a detention of Dakota for defense

Lawyers for Greenpeace are in the North Dakota Supreme Court in the North Dakota, he said. The court claimed that the court did not transfer the court from Muncon County to court, the jury was impartial. Daily life is about a year, in 2016 and 2017, in 2017, the protesters in the southern standing rock reservation are there for a year.

Over several states since 2017, oil transportation from North Dakota, international attention, attracting thousands of people and sometimes protests against the construction of a pipeline that causes violent clashes.

The company, which built the pipeline, energy transfer, first filed a lawsuit against Greenpeace in 2019. The suit charges the environmental group in protests against the construction of the pipeline, the construction of the pipeline, as well as employees and equipment and energy transfers.

Greenpeace, one of the world’s most well-known environmental groups, protests, in support of local American activists, said that he encouraged the organization’s non-rappression.

Lawyers for Greenpeace showed the jury, the district court did the court to deny their previous movements to the larger Fargo city. “With the choice of the jury, it is more clear than ever, it is clearer that they are always clear that they will not be tried fairly and impartially in the north of the protests,” he said.

If Greenpeace will lose the lawsuit, one judgment can make up hundreds of millions of dollars and force them to close operations in the United States.

The movement includes negative articles on protests against the newspapers sent to Morton County residents in recent months. Three Greenpeace organizations called the court said that the newspapers were in the application that appealed to the State Supreme Court, which is “lonely for now”, which has been closely linked to them.

Energy transmission did not respond immediately to a survey for the comments you join in the newspapers sent by mail.

The court did not respond to the application in the afternoon. The court is scheduled to last five weeks.

Testimates started on Wednesday, ND, ND, only between the Missouri River, Bismarck. Protests occurred in the south of a driver of about 45 minutes.

The case is normally heard by Judge James D. Gion, located in the neighboring Stark County. The judges of Morton County reiterated themselves, “They felt that they met the bidder / defendant and the best interest of justice,” he said.

The energy transfer began to call witnesses on Wednesday.

Joey Mahmud, vice-president with the vice-president, which controls the entrance to Dakota, said that the pipeline serves the decisive purpose from the North Dakota fields from the Bakken Dakota. The construction of the pipeline came between a historic boom in the area that helps the United States to become the world’s largest oil producer.

Protests against the project, the Protest of the Permanent Rock Sioux tribe and allies in the spring of 2016 testified. Tribal leaders said the project was buried and other sacred lands and the construction of the construction of the tribe will be engaged in the water supply.

The company has argued that this claims to recruit experts and did not support these claims to explore the route. He said that pipelines are a more reliable way to transport fat compared to trucks or railways.

Energy transfer lawyers also called the district sheriff and showed the video sediments of the former Greenpeace employees. Most of the questions about the use of Lockboxes – Applicators can use themselves to connect themselves to items such as each other or fence or equipment – this Greenpeace was sent to protests.

Morton County Sheriff, Kyle Kirchmeier, said that law enforcement should be climbing to respond to the flow of protesters and conflicts. He said that the state should be asked for an urgent declaration and the elimination of lock boxes should be grown in tactics officers.

An old Greenpeace worker Harmony Lambert said he went to the rock in 2016 and worked with a local active group. E-mails were shown to Greenpeace colleagues, including detail and informing people in detail and informed about 20 lockboxes.

An application for sale of media organizations, including the New York Times, is waiting with the State Supreme Court. Another application for online access has been rejected to the trial from a group from a group to North Dakota. Martin Garbus and Steven Donziger, the first unruly revived lawyer, the first adjusted lawyer to court decades, took the time to disrespect the court.
