Change of venue sought in jail suit

By Brad Kellar

Greenville – A defendant in the Hunt County Jail construction lawsuit is seeking a change of venue.

Attorneys for Burns Architecture Incorporated have also filed a denial of the claims raised by Mary Bruner, who filed a plea in intervention in the suit in January.

A hearing regarding Bruner's call for a default judgment against the architects, which had been scheduled for Thursday, was canceled earlier this week. A hearing on the latest motions had not been set as of Wednesday.

Bruner had filed a petition arguing that she was hurt two years ago while working at the jail, allegedly due to defects associated with the reported problems with the jail's construction.
