ORANGE, Va. (AP) - A trial date has been set on a bid to block a Walmart Supercenter near an endangered Civil War battlefield in northern Virginia.
At a hearing Friday, Orange Circuit Court Judge Daniel Bouton scheduled the trial for January 25th.
In late April, Bouton kept alive the fight to block the Walmart Supercenter near where Robert E. Lee and Ulysses S. Grant first met on the field of battle.
The judge ruled residents who live near the battlefield and a historic group can contest at trial the county's approval of the store in Locust Grove.
