Ratner Suffers Setback, the Conspiracy Theory Version.

from dddb:
Court Ruling is Major Setback for Ratner's Atlantic Yards

For Immediate Release: September 29, 2008

Court Rejects New York State's Effort to Dismiss Atlantic Yards Eminent Domain Case

Ruling is a Major Setback for Bruce Ratner's
Proposed Project and the
Empire State Development Corporation

Property Owners and Tenants
Will Get Their Day in Court Next Year

..............................................................

My conspiracy theory: NY Judges are corrupt, political appointees. Ratner's project is financially infeasible for the state, but no politician wants to break a backroom deal with Boss Ratner, so this is an easy way out.

The evidence: just a hunch, but according to AYR:
The decision denying the ESDC's motion to dismiss, apparently on procedural grounds,

When have Judges every been a stickler for 'the rules' when it came to Forest City Ratner?
