The Louisiana Fourth Circuit Court of Appeal in New Orleans, recently released its ruling on the Save Our St. Bernard’s (SOS) appeal to Ad-Hoc Judge Robert Morrison’s February 2023 dismal ruling of their lawsuit against the Port of New Orleans (Port NOLA) to implement an injunction against the port’s Louisiana International Terminal Project in Violet. The appeal “concurred” with Morrison’s ruling that the lawsuit from SOS was premature as Port NOLA had not gone through the various permitting processes required for the project’s development.
