adds significant lawyers fees.
We won the appeal splendidly. Now we wait to see what the City will decide to do, my bet is that they will drag their feet any way they can to prolong the lawsuit, in other words they have two options, ask for the Appeals court to look at the decision again (doesn't seem likely they would accept since this decision wasn't even close) or try to take it up to the Indiana Supreme Court. Either way delays the lawsuit for months longer and adds significant lawyers fees.

Keep dragging it out. You're gonna win and the only difference is you'll be richer. Make sure to do as many consultations with your lawyer as "reasonably" possible. Think of it as an investment against the cities bad policies.
Basically there is nothing to do at this point except wait and see what the City attorney's next move is. They have a certain amount of time to decide a course of action and then a certain amount of time to pursue a decision and then after exhausting all other options we may get to a trial. They will try anything at this point to not get there in a hurry though.
Delay, delay, delay. The horse may learn to sing. There should be some personal consequences for their actions. This could be structured in the law. I believe the Florida law did so, and it worked very well.
That would be interesting. I think you teach a pig to sing though
Well the city has officially petitioned the Appeals Court for another embarrassing smackdown. They took 28 days to file and I believe there is another 30 days for the Appeals court to respond to their request for a re-hearing since it was such a close call the first time
