TransCanada and the Trump administration have renewed their request to dismiss Montana lawsuits against the Keystone XL pipeline.
Parties filed briefs late in the day on Friday, Jan. 24.
Both proponents and opponents of the pipeline restated positions already on record in December, when Montana Federal Judge Brian Morris denied dismissal of the lawsuits and asked for further briefing.
Morris asked parties to clarify several issues, including whether the president has authority to issue a permit.
