Oral Argument MN Court of Appeals

In re: Center for Biological Diversity, et al Petitioners vs Minnesota Dept of Natural Resources, et al., Respondents.

Join us on April 3rd, 2013, when our case will be heard by the Minnesota Court of Appeals. Oral arguments are scheduled to begin at 10 am, but we recommend arriving by 9:30 am as the case may be heard early if there are last minute schedule changes. The proceedings will last approximately 45 minutes. 

Your presence will help show the judges it was unacceptable the DNR denied you the opportunity to make a public comment before the recreational wolf hunting and trapping season was approved. Be a witness for the wolf. Wear your t-shirts and buttons, but leave your signs at home.

The hearing will take place at the Minnesota Judicial Center, 25 Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd., St. Paul, MN 55155 Courtroom 100 (click for map). Confirm your attendance by emailing us at respond@howlingforwolves.org or just show up.

Senate Committee Hearing On Wolf Bill

Please update your calendars, the scheduled time for the Senate hearing on the wolf hunting moratorium bill (S.F. 666) has changed. The new date for the hearing is Thursday, March 14th at 12 pm, but be there early.

The hearing will take place in the State Capitol building, Room 107. To get to the hearing room, go in through the main Capitol entrance and go straight through the Rotunda, across the hallway and into the next corridor. Room 107 will be on the left side. Seating is limited so plan to arrive early to get your seat. We recommend arriving by 11:30 am. The committee meets from 12 pm until 2:30 pm and we anticipate the wolf will be given the majority of this time. Even if you can’t stay for the entire hearing, your presence is very important. A full room gets lawmakers attention. 

Wear your Howling For Wolves t-shirts and buttons. If you plan to attend and don’t have a t-shirt or button, please let us know so we can arrange to have one available for you on your arrival.

Email us at respond@howlingforwolves.org if you know you can attend or just show up. See below for the location and parking information.
