Judge Delays July 27 Hearing

July 22, 2005

    July 22, 2005 -- U.S. District Judge Richard Cebull in Billings, Mont., canceled arguments scheduled for July 27 on the request for a permanent injunction against imports of Canadian cattle and beef.
    ?After receipt of the court of appeals opinion, this court will determine whether further hearings are necessary,? Cebull wrote in an order Wednesday.
    Last week, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals issued an order reversing the injunction, allowing cattle shipments from Canada to resume.
