Granite Rock Company John Orcutt Martha Edwards Arthur Wilson Woolpert, Notice Shareholder v. United States
Citations: 371 F.3d 592; 93 A.F.T.R.2d (RIA) 2634; 2004 U.S. App. LEXIS 11321Docket: 03-15485
Court: Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit; June 9, 2004; Federal Appellate Court
Granite Rock Company, along with shareholders John Orcutt, Martha Edwards, and Arthur Wilson Woolpert, appealed against the United States of America in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. The case was argued on May 12, 2004, and the decision was filed on June 9, 2004. The plaintiffs were represented by attorneys Daniel F. Polsenberg and Beau Sterling, while the defendant was represented by Assistant Attorney General Eileen J. O'Connor and other attorneys from the U.S. Department of Justice. The appeal originated from the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, presided over by Judge James Ware. The Ninth Circuit affirmed the lower court's decision, citing Judge Ware's earlier opinion published in 243 F. Supp. 2d 1059 (N.D. Cal. 2003). The ruling was made with the participation of Circuit Judges O'Scannlain, Siler, and Hawkins, with Judge Siler sitting by designation. The case was ultimately affirmed without additional commentary or modification.
