Boulder County judge declines to toss suit blaming Xcel for Marshall Fire
BOULDER — A Boulder County District Court judge decided last week not to dismiss a lawsuit brought by a group of local business owners who lay the blame for last December’s Marshall Fire at the feet of Xcel Energy Inc. (NYSE: XEL)
