Search Primer

Term list: Separate terms with spaces, not commas or semicolons.

Multi-word term: Place inside quotes to ensure an exact match (e.g. "China import").

Acronyms: Use all capital letters to ensure the search is not looking for that letter sequence instead.

Required term: If a term must be included in any resulting articles, prefix it with a plus sign (e.g., +CBP).

Excluded term: If a term should be excluded from any articles being found, prefix it with a minus sign (e.g., -ruling).

Singular form: Always use the singular form when doing multi-word terms (e.g. "russian export control" instead of "russian export controls").

Shortest word form: When you have different word forms in a quoted (multi-word) term, you want to only include the shortest version if it is the last part of the expression (e.g., "entity list" instead of "entity listing" or "entity listed").

A lawsuit against Sprint Nextel and Level 3 in Idaho...
March 17, 2011 |Miscellaneous

A lawsuit against Sprint Nextel and Level 3 in Idaho argued that people who own or owned land next to or under railroad rights of way in the state may be eligible for payments. A preliminary approval of a proposed settlement was granted by the U.S. District Court in Boise. The suit alleged that, before installing the telecom equipment, the communications companies were required to obtain consent from those landowners who owned the land under the rights of way. Sprint and Level 3 contended that the permissions granted by the railroads were sufficient, even where the railroad didn’t own all property rights in the rights of way, and denied any wrongdoing. The proposed settlement would provide cash payments to qualifying class members based on various factors. Those factors would include: The length of the right of way where the cable is installed, the length of time they owned the property, and whether the right of way was created by a federal land grant. The proposed settlement would also provide Sprint and Level 3 with a permanent telecom easement, which would allow the companies to use the railroad rights of way for their telecom equipment.
