Court Stops State from Logging Biggest State Forest

In a strongly worded decision, the Superior Court of Mendocino County on May 18 issued a Preliminary Injunction that stops the California Department of Forestry (CDF) from proceeding with two pending timber sales in Jackson State Forest. The sales would have logged 900 acres of old second-growth redwood in a 50,000-acre state-owned redwood forest in Mendocino County, California.
