Judge's decision will wait

AUBURN - The decision in a legal challenge filed by the Cayuga Nation claiming that two of their businesses were illegally raided on Nov. 25 for untaxed cigarettes will not be released until next week.

State Supreme Court Judge Kenneth Fisher, who signed the search warrant that authorized last week's raid, said Wednesday that he wanted to review information before issuing a decision.

Fisher heard arguments from the Cayuga and Seneca county district attorneys and lawyers representing both the sheriffs' offices that executed the raids and from the tribe's representatives.
