MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - An attorney for Alabama Gov. Bob Riley
will tell a judge that the governor wants to move forward with a
federal lawsuit that seeks to resolve a long-standing water dispute
with Georgia.
Riley spokesman Jeff Emerson says moving forward with the
lawsuit does not mean Riley wants to abandon ongoing negotiations
with the governors of Georgia and Florida. The suit was filed
against the U.S. Corps of Engineers in 1990.
An attorney for Riley in the water dispute, Mark Lembke, will
attend a status conference Friday afternoon in the chambers of U.S.
District Judge Karon Bowdre in Birmingham.
