Lawsuits Stop Construction at Blue Grass Airport

A judge has ordered that construction be halted at Lexington's Blue Grass Airport, site of Comair's Flight 5191 accident. Lawyer's representing victims in the accident were concerned that key evidence for their cases could be altered by the construction. This is a tough situation. This construction needs to be completed as soon as possible but victims rights need to be upheld. Thankfully the judge has ordered that all expert review of the airport need to be completed in 30 days. I suppose this is the best compromise for all involved.
