MPR to provide live coverage of unallotment hearing
MPR News will provide live coverage of the oral arguments before the Minnesota Supreme Court tomorrow. The case centers around Gov. Pawlenty's use of unallotment and whether he "crossed the line" when he unilaterally cut spending to erase a $2.7 billion budget deficit.
A Ramsey County District Court judge ruled in December that Pawlenty crossed the line. Pawlenty appealed the case and the Minnesota Supreme Court agreed to hear the case on an expedited basis.
The coverage of the oral arguments begins at 9AM Monday.
