Attorneys Have Been Secured

Neighbors for Justice recognizes that the Bartlesville City Council has been faced with controversial situations and challenging times in recent months and years. The neighbors appreciate the service of each of the council members to the community of Bartlesville and the vital function that this council provides to the health and growth of this city.

However, the neighbors believe the action taken by the council on August 25, 2008 was unacceptable. This vote overturned a previous denial for zoning to allow a jail in a residential neighborhood. The neighbors do not see any opportunity at this time to correct that mistake other than via legal action.

With that being said, Neighbors For Justice would like to announce that they have secured the law firm Gibbs, Armstrong, Borochoff, Mullican & Hart to defend their cause.

This firm also represented the South Tulsa Citizens Coalition who fought against having a toll bridge built and were victorious this year at the Supreme Court.
