Session 01: Case Update: U.S. vs. Osage Wind LLC and the Outcome - Learn about an 11-year legal odyssey involving the Osage Nation’s challenge to a large wind farm, including 84 wind turbines situated on fee land within the Osage Reservation in Oklahoma, without a “mining” permit. After a significant Tenth Circuit reversal, a federal judge granted a permanent injunction, found the project to be a continuing trespass and ordered a trial on damages and conversion. It’s a cautionary tale about tribal sovereignty, land use requirements, the need for community engagement and building support for renewable energy projects.
Session 02: Case Update: In re Winter Storm Uri - Winter Storm Uri had an impact across all 254 counties, and the ensuing Multi-District Litigation has seen several phases and appeals. Review the history of the case and update of its current status.
