U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) demolished half of the historic Skinners Falls Bridge on Thursday, April 17.

A court order to protect the Skinners Falls Bridge was denied in federal court last night.

Court order protects Skinners Falls Bridge for another day, but engineers call for its demolition to protect human lives at Friday’s federal hearing in Scranton.

In separate federal lawsuits filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania, three union members say Pennsylvania State Education Association failed to protect their data then waited more than eight months to let them know about the breach.
