Plaintiffs file emergency motion in Birmingham AI data center trial to continue with new judge rather than restart
Plaintiffs in Birmingham, Alabama, have filed an emergency motion to continue a preliminary injunction hearing with a new judge after the presiding judge recused herself during a trial challenging a proposed AI data center project. The plaintiffs argue that restarting the trial would cause undue delays and harm as construction continues at the site. The lawsuit alleges the data center is being built illegally and causes noise disruption.
