MARQUETTE — Circuit Court Judge Thomas Solka denied a request this morning from L. Blondeau and Sons Trucking to allow its trucks to travel on south Marquette streets while its lawsuit against the city of Marquette is pending.
Blondeau filed a preliminary injunction to temporarily restrain enforcement of the ordinance — which set a weight limit of 10,000 pounds on trucks traveling on Genesee, Division and Grove streets — until the court case is heard and tried on June 20.
In his decision, Solka said a preliminary injunction is regarded as an extraordinary remedy and the company failed to show it would be “irreparably harmed” if the city’s ordinance continued until the case is decided.
