Held v. State of Montana Plaintiffs Walking Together to Court
Dear John,
Join us this Wednesday, July 10 at 8:30am PDT / 9:30am MDT / 11:30am EDT to support Montana youth as they head to the Supreme Court in Held v. State of Montana ([link removed]) , the world’s first, winning, youth-led constitutional climate lawsuit!
Last summer, we made history when Judge Seeley ruled ([link removed]) wholly in favor of 16 youth plaintiffs, enshrining into law science-based protections for children’s fundamental rights. As we expected, the State appealed to the Montana Supreme Court in September of 2023.
This Wednesday the 10th, attorneys for the 16 Held plaintiffs will have the opportunity to present their case to the Supreme Court, and underscore the importance of upholding Judge Seeley’s landmark ruling.
We need you with us this Wednesday, July 10th.
Help us PACK this courthouse in-person or virtually!
Oral arguments in Held v. State of Montana will be heard before the Montana Supreme Court on July 10, 2024, at 8:30 am PDT/9:30 am MDT/11:30 am EDT in Helena in the courtroom of the Montana Supreme Court, Joseph P. Mazurek Justice Building.
