Retrial possible in Lowe's Feed and Grain case

Jul 15, 2019 at 08:42 AM CST

A second jury may hear evidence in the ongoing legal dispute between Lowe’s Feed and Grain and former city inspector Rick Maxwell. Feed mill owner Don Lowe sued Maxwell and the city of Bowling Green in 2007, seeking to hold them liable for a 2002 power outage that shut down the business for 17 months. Lowe accused Maxwell of misrepresenting to him the cause of the power outage and failing to notify him in a timely fashion about purported city code violations at the mill and what Lowe needed to do to bring the business into compliance. The case has traveled back and forth between Warren Circuit Court and the Kentucky Court of Appeals.
