The bill that is in the hopper is welcome by me. It only buttress the claim that this whole line of legislation is special legislation, directed solely at Memphis.

The judge could address this very easily. He could, either move up the physical merger or enjoin the new law as being in conflict with Public Chapter 1.

The litigation will still go forth, only with a quicker starting point.

Someone correct me if I am wrong in my understanding of this.

If that is the case, then the munis moving forward with their planning and preparing to be ready to operate their own district once the unified system starts is still the case.
