Anyone know how the hearing went?
If I remember right, the Commonwealth Court basically told the city (between the lines) that they were toast and their next station on their wild ride would be petition for allocatur to PA Supreme Court. As the court recently ruled on basically the same question not even 10 years ago (if I remember right) I think the city is pretty much done. But who knows, the reasons we have judges and courts is it's hard to predict for certain how these things will be resolved (if we knew for sure we wouldn't need a judge -- everybody would just know and go away).

An opinion hasn't been issued yet (as far as I know) but based on the questions the judges asked, that's how the wind blows.
