County Not Liable for Alt-Weekly Publisher's Legal Costs, Judge Rules
North Dakota's Cass County will not have to reimburse John Strand's legal bills, reports In-Forum. Strand, publisher of High Plains Reader, sued the county in February 2003 over the planned destruction of an old jail. The county then filed a countersuit, claiming damages caused by the demolition's delay. In June 2005, a jury declared that neither Strand nor the county should collect damages. Following the jury's decision, the judge in the case ruled that the county's demolition of the old jail was legal. Last week, the same judge denied Strand's request to compel the county pay his court costs. In-Forum says the ruling "end(s) the legal wrangling" in the case.

Another Skirmish in the Alt-Weekly War in San Francisco
While San Francisco Bay Guardian's Bruce B. Brugmann was railing against a New Times-Village Voice Media merger that is still merely a rumor, his competitors at the New Times-owned SF Weekly were commissioning a handwriting analysis of the outspoken publisher. The handwriting expert says that B3's penmanship suggests that he's smart, respectful, and generous, and that he's "very much in control of himself and .... confident in how he impresses himself upon his environment."
