The main argument by the plaintiff's seemed to be that the Hartford Police Department , specifically a single zone Lieutenant, should not be the deciding authority as to who is allowed open and who is forced to close
The two stores , owned by NMD, LLC had filed a lawsuit against the City of Hartford claiming damages by the arbitrary closing during late night hours. Apparently Judge Scholl agreed and issued the injunction yesterday.
The City was ordered to allow the stores to open overnight hours immediately.
It is most likely other convenience stores across the City affected by the ordinance will be seeking similar relief until the case is finally determined to be lawful or not.

I agree with the court.
I think most people with any common sense would and would have probably agreed that this ordinance would never have survived court challenges
Kevin, once again Jenna Carlesso from the Courant has shown what a great journalist she is. You posted this at 3:07Pm and put it on twitter and it took Carlesso 3 hours to rip the story from here and post it as her own after 6:00PM with no credit to you,
No wonder the Courant is failing.
Courant Sucks,
Thank you, but you and I both have the satisfaction of knowing where it appeared first, as well as many other followers of my blog. If others spent time developing sources instead of trolling the Internet to steal breaking news or sitting on their ass waiting to be spoon fed stories, they might be getting the calls before I do.

Are there any people still reading the Courant?
Jenna Carlesso is irrelevant as the Courant she works for.

I used to read it online, now they expect me to pay to read articles that are misspelled, poor syntax, factually inaccurate, and incomplete.
What ever happened to "Who, What, When, Where, Why"?
The Hartford Courant editorial morons selected a loser, Oz Griebel, for governor, knowing that Oz had no chance to win in a million years, therefore interrupting the real race between the real candidates, Lamont and Stefanowski.
And you forgot completely biased, far from fair and accurate, and completely leaning to the left.
I believe the Courant supported Oz because they knew he would take more votes from Bob than from Ned, therefore securing the razor slim Ned victory. The Courant is all in for the democrat and Ned agenda of more taxes and tolls.
