Supreme Court sides with Delaware in river dispute

WASHINGTON (AP) - Delaware Supreme Court has won a battle with the New Jersey, on Monday probably the killing of any proposed liquefied natural gas terminal on the Delaware River.

Judges in a 6-2 decision, a Delaware can block the project, even if it was energy giant BP Jersey’s side of the river.

Delaware has said he wanted to stop the project, since security. The state owns the bottom of the river on the path of the waterway, including the land on which a 2200-foot long pier would be built on the site of Jersey.

The United States agree that the country has the Delaware, New Jersey, but believe that a century-old agreement allows each state to monitor the pillars of its side of the river.

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, writing for the Court, said Delaware ordinary person can not block plans for the future. The proposal in question, but “goes far beyond the normal and usual,” she said.

Judge Samuel Alito and Antonin Scalia disputed. Under an agreement concluded in 1905, said Scalia, New Jersey has exclusive authority over construction on its side mooring

From the river.
The United States, cited several provisions of the agreement of 1905 that their charm, which, among other things, fishing rights and repression of the authority on the part of 410 miles of the river serves as the border between them.

The dispute concerned a terminal that BP wanted in the New Jersey side of the river. New Jersey officials, the project has been approved, which could lead to more than 1300 construction jobs.

Delaware officials, but have refused to allow the construction of a mole of 2000 m in length, covering the lower river, is part of Delaware. Without the pier, the project could not go ahead.

Today, the Supreme Court refused Monday, a milestone in the use of the legal battle between the Department of Justice and charged Rep. William Jefferson on the unprecedented attack on the legislators’s Capitol Hill.

The Ministry of Justice, the Court not to hinder the action, the cases of corruption against Democrat of Louisiana.

The judge dismissed an appeal, a review of the ruling, the Court said that, while the research office itself was legal, the FBI checks legal documents against the Constitution.

Other documents were seized in the proceedings of the case and prosecutors were used for a 16-count indictment of Jefferson in June 2007.

Jefferson has pleaded not guilty to charges of obtaining more than $ 500000 in bribes during his office to negotiate the use of its operations in Africa. His trial has been delayed for an indefinite period.

Jefferson judge in the Alexandria, Virginia, to remove all paper and electronic documents seized in May 2006 raid. U. S. District Judge T.S. Ellis III, has yet to take a decision on the request, arguing against government lawyers.

“We were convinced that the Department of Justice was out of bounds,” Robert Trout, Jefferson’s attorney, said in a telephone interview. “Now, almost two years later, we are pleased that our initial judgement on a search finally been confirmed. ”

The international survey of corruption Jefferson had a mountain of evidence against him - $ 90000, mostly found wrapped in a sheet of freezer Washington, in his home - when the FBI in the search of his office in the Rayburn House Office Building.

Prosecutors say he used his influence as chairman of the Congress of the African investment and trade office brokers business in Nigeria, Ghana, Cameroon and other African countries, on behalf those who bribes paid to him.

The research is “necessary, proportionate and constitutional, Assistant Attorney General Alice Fisher, the head of the Department of Criminal Justice, said at a press conference on the day of the indictment was made available to the public .

“Some of the papers we received were covered by the process are, in fact, the costs which are today,” said Fisher.

Department of Justice, spokeswoman Laura Sweeney expressed disappointment and the Court’s action Monday, but said: “The Department of Justice will continue to support the prosecution of cases.”

The problem is that the high court has refused to process, the scope of a provision known as the speech or debate clause, which protects elected officials is questioned by the president, attorney general or complainant in the context of a dispute about their legislative work.

The Court has never said whether the protection also applies to research.

In the United States, the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, he said.

The appellate court did not say, the legislature should notice of the FBI’s arrival. However, the Court, said the Department of Justice could not largely legislative review recordings. One solution already in the opinion of the FBI agent, to block, office and then let the legislature to set aside the documents in question. A judge to decide whether the records could be seized.

Officials have said, it did not extraordinary, including the use of the FBI “filter team is not participating in the criminal organization is, verification of documents of the congress. The government lawyers said the Constitution did not intend to shield lawmakers for policymaking of corruption.

While the Bush administration has asked the Supreme Court to intervene, Attorney General Michael Mukasey in February, said he would prefer Congress and the Ministry of Justice an agreement on the future of research.

An agreement between the legislator and his agency would be better than one issued by the Tribunal “line clear judgement that one of us can not live with or would it be embarrassing to guarantee life,” said Mukasey the House Judiciary Committee.

Delaware wins border battle about NJ gas pier plan

New Jersey lost their “border war” with Delaware today. The U.S. Supreme Court said Delaware can build a block of natural gas terminals liquid Jersey on the side of the Delaware River, as it stated in the waters extended from the colonial era, since the Delaware.

The judgement was 6-2 - with the two natives of New Jersey on the court, and Justices Antonin Scalia, Samuel Alito Jr., the sole dissenting.

British Petroleum wants to build a terminal for deliveries of liquefied natural gas in Logan Township, Gloucester County. $ 750 million of the project would be an extension of Pier almost halfway into the river.

Delaware, cited the environment, 2005, and refused to grant permits for the project. New Jersey, he went to war in the courts, with the exclusive right to the regulation of projects of its shore. Delaware fact, it could be the development of veto because it is in possession of the river stretching low in most of the waterway since 1682.

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, writing for the majority, said during the Delaware can not block the projects of Jersey ordinary one hand, the proposed BP project goes far beyond the normal and usual. ”

“He was in the Delaware authority to prohibit the construction of the facility in their area,” Ginsburg wrote.

In his dissent, Scalia said an exception to this rule for projects outside the “normal and usual” is “unacceptable”. He spoke of Delaware to refuse “heavy industry take advantage” of posts in New Jersey unfairly tips the balance of power.

Lee Moore, a spokesman for the state Attorney General’s Office, said: “We are disappointed the Supreme Court of the United States would not have our position that New Jersey has the exclusive competence of resolve all the improvements of our country. ”

But BP said that the decision not to kill the project, and that the terminal could increase to the New Jersey side of the river

“Given that everything that happens here, and the need for closing, I ask you to what is probably beyond the rest of the natural life,” says Becker. “I am pleased that I am doing my job and the protection of society.”

Hunt asked for a final statement to the Constitutional Court. As he said: “If I can, I of the death penalty. I know it would be too fast, but it would help when I got out of the picture. ”
