Tupper Lake resort heads to Supreme Court
SHAUN KITTLE
ALBANY - Justices in the Appellate Division of the New York state Supreme Court heard verbal arguments Monday afternoon from representatives on both sides of the Adirondack Club and Resort Article 78 lawsuit.
The justices are expected to reach a verdict within the next couple of months. That verdict could be the end of a lengthy legal battle between the state Adirondack Park Agency and ACR developers, which were sued by Protect the Adirondacks, the Sierra Club and three local landowners: Phyllis Thompson, Robert Harrison and Leslie Harrison.
Parties on the losing end of that decision would have 60 days to appeal it. The case could then go to the Court of Appeals, but only if the Appellate Division judges who made the initial decision deem it worthy.
The representatives for each side submitted briefs to the court last year. Each had 15 minutes Monday to present verbal arguments to the justices.
