(AP) \u2014 Owners of the Dakota Access pipeline have asked the full Washington D.C. circuit court to review a panel\u2019s decision that essentially said the North Dakota project is operating without a key permit. The appeal filed Monday calls for a rehearing on a ruling by the three-judge panel affirming U.S. District Judge James Boasberg\u2019s opinion that the pipeline is operating without a federal permit granting easement to cross beneath a reservoir along the Missouri River. Opponents want the pipeline shut down while the U.S. Corps of Engineers conducts an extensive environmental review, a decision that will likely fall to Boasberg.The chances of a full review by the D.C. Court are unlikely and lawyers for the pipeline opponents aren\u2019t required to file a response unless requested by the court.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 Fairmount Republican Larry Luick has been chosen as the North Dakota Senate\u2019s new president pro tempore (pro TEM\u2019-por-ay). The job involves presiding over Senate sessions when the lieutenant governor is absent. Luick replaces Minot Sen. Randy Burckhard. Luick will have the job until the next regular session of the Legislature begins in January 2023. The GOP has the majority in the North Dakota Senate, and Luick defeated Fargo Democrat Tim Mathern Wednesday to win the job. The 62-year-old farmer and excavation contractor was first elected to the Senate in 2010 and represents District 25, in the state\u2019s southeastern corner.<\/p>\n<p>BROOKLYN CENTER, Minn. (AP) \u2014 A white former Minnesota police officer faces her first court appearance in the traffic-stop shooting of Black motorist Daunte Wright that has engulfed a small Minneapolis suburb with four straight days of bitter conflict between protesters and police. Kim Potter, who quit her job on the Brooklyn Center force two days after Wright\u2019s death, is expected to appear via Zoom on Thursday afternoon. She was charged Wednesday with second-degree manslaughter in what her chief said appeared to be a case of confusing her Taser with her handgun. She was arrested and later freed after posting a $100,000 bond. Wright\u2019s death came as the broader Minneapolis area nervously awaits the outcome of the trial for Derek Chauvin, the first of four officers charged in George Floyd\u2019s death.<\/p>\n<p>In sports&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 The North Dakota House has passed a bill restricting transgender girls from participating in public elementary and secondary school sports and sent the legislation to the Senate. The bill passed Wednesday prohibits K-12 schools from \u201cknowingly\u201d allowing a student to join an athletic team exclusively for their opposite gender, but does allow girls to play on boys teams. The legislation includes an optional interim study of the impact of the bill on student athletic events. Any recommendations would be forwarded to the 2023 Legislature. Supporters of the bill say it ensures fairness in girls sports. Opponents say the bill discriminates against transgender youth and risks possible legal action.<\/p>\n<p>ST. LOUIS (AP) \u2014 The Missouri Valley Football Conference says it has canceled the North Dakota at Youngstown State game scheduled Saturday. The league said in a release that the Penguins played a league-high seven games in eight weeks this spring and determined they could not play the game. The school said its players need to focus on academics. North Dakota will share the league title with Missouri State and the winner of Saturday\u2019s game between South Dakota State and North Dakota State.
