‘The ball is really in their court,’ Attorney General Ellison says of East Grand Forks restaurant as it reopens for a fourth night
Under financial pressure reportedly brought on by a gubernatorial order, an East Grand Forks bar and grill opened for the fourth night in a row on Saturday, despite a statewide restriction. It s facing a lawsuit from Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison and a restraining order from a Polk County judge, and penalties could quickly pile up from there. Ellison told the Herald that the figurative ball is in the restaurant s court. 5:49 pm, Dec. 12, 2020 ×
