A ruling on whether the results of a special wet-dry election last November affecting the Jamestown area will stand or not could possibly be rendered before Friday. Pre-trial motions were heard Tuesday afternoon in Russell Circuit Court by Special Judge Julia Adams of Winchester in a lawsuit filed by five local residents challenging the validity of the election held November 24th in the Lake and Jamestown precincts, including the City of Jamestown. A “bench trial” had been scheduled for this Friday, February 25th, however, during Tuesday’s court proceedings Judge Adams said “the material facts of the case are not disputed” and she would be taking the case under advisement and could possibly issue her decision by Friday.
