On April 21, IJ filed an amicus brief in the Indiana Supreme Court case Monroe County Board of Zoning Appeals v. Bedford Recycling, Inc. The brief urges the Indiana Supreme Court to overturn the Appeals Court decision which held that the Monroe County Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA) was warranted when it revoked a conditional use permit it had previously given Bedford Recycling, after a large competitor spoke out against the granting of the permit.

 IJ's brief argues that the BZA's sudden about-face to repeal the conditional use permit is an affront to the state and country's history of property rights.
