We’re Going to Court—Need Contributions Now!

The Geist area remonstrators fighting the forced annexation of our property by the Fishers Town Council are headed to court.

We are scheduled for trial in Hamilton County Superior Court #1 (Judge Nation) on November 24 – 26 (Thanksgiving week).  The trial may start on Saturday, November 22nd unless the lawyers for both parties can stipulate that they can complete the trail in 3 days.  We can agree to that, but we’re not sure about all of the lawyers and different law firms the Town Council is using.

Nonetheless, as you probably know by now, we are being out spent 10:1 by the Town Council.  They’ve chalked up $1.2 million so far (since only 2007) of their taxpayers’ money; evidently, this is an unlimited resource thanks to the heretofore unacknowledged (and perhaps unknown) generosity of their taxpayers.

We certainly don’t need $1.2 million; we do need $50,000 for attorney and expert witness fees.

If you signed the remonstrance petition against the forced annexation of your property, you told us to go to court to fight this.  If you signed the remonstration petition against the forced annexation of your property and have not contributed to the legal fund, then you are hamstringing your own efforts!  We can’t continue the fight without money!

If nothing else, we’ve all saved thousands of dollars in additional property taxes since this all started in 2005.  If nothing else, trial holds them off even longer.

Don’t think your neighbors can pay for this all by themselves.  There is no investor angel in the wings.  Contribute NOW!
