Judge Bollings Return: A Million-Dollar Ruling Amidst Water Dispute Controversy
In a surprising turn of events, Circuit Court Judge Fred Bolling has re-entered a contentious water dispute, ruling against Central Alabama Water and potentially causing rate hikes for customers. The decision comes after Bolling stepped aside last year due to concerns about his impartiality, stemming from a past attorney-client relationship with the utility. Lawyers for Central Alabama Water argued that old emails showed tension, raising questions about judicial fairness. Bollings sharp response to the lawyer adds fuel to the controversy. The outcome of this twist will be closely watched by ratepayers.
