Judge issues amended orders in private border-wall lawsuit

A federal judge on Wednesday afternoon issued new orders prohibiting further “shaving, grading or cutting of the bank of the Rio Grande River” on the South Texas property whose owner wants a private border wall built.

U.S. District Judge Randy Crane signed a new temporary restraining order on what can and cannot be done “… until such time as USIBWC fulfills its analysis and other requirements pursuant to the 1970 Treaty between the United States and Mexico.” The signed and amended orders were filed Wednesday with the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas.

These new terms were agreed upon by the U.S. Department of Justice, which has brought the federal lawsuit, and defendants Fisher Industries and the landowner. The terms took several days to clear, and had been expected to have been issued last Friday, according to testimony during a status hearing last Thursday.
