Two days before the football season starts at UC Berkeley, a group of oak tree supporters and Memorial Stadium neighbors filed an appeal to stop the university from building an athletic training center next to the 75,000-seat bowl.
The appeal, filed Thursday with the state Court of Appeal in San Francisco, comes two days after an Alameda County trial judge lifted an order preventing the university from beginning construction on the $125 million project.
"There are some basic legal and procedural issues we'd like to see resolved by a higher court," said Michael Kelly, president of the Panoramic Hill Association, representing the stadium's neighbors. "It's not surprising we had to go to the appeals court - the university has never lost in the lower courts in Alameda County." More here:

Too funny, this delay is costing Berkeley about $50,000 per day and nobody is liable. Hysterical, huh? Only in California can four idiots sitting in a tree cost people huge amounts of money and "it's ok."
