Mississippi is back at it after losing the first round of its $1+ billion 'groundwater theft' lawsuit versus Tennessee and its political subdivision, the City of Memphis and its utility, Memphis Light, Gas and Water. This time, the Supreme Court has agreed to hear the case, the first time SCOTUS has accepted a case that involves groundwater only.

Stay tuned!
