The Decatur County District Attorney has officially declared that he will bring his fight against a monkey facility to the Georgia Supreme Court.

This follows the Georgia Court of Appeals’ decision to rule in favor of the company over the facility, Safer Human Medicine (SHM).

Bainbridge neighbors said the district attorney’s intent to bring the matter to the Georgia Supreme Court motivates them to continue the fight they started almost a year ago.

“We’re tired, but at this very moment, catch your breath because it’s amping up,” said Elise Boyd who is a part of the Stand-up Bainbridge Movement.

District Attorney Joe Mulholland said it’s up to the Georgia Supreme Court to decide whether they want to hear his appeal or agree with the Court of Appeals ruling.

Ultimately, he said he would continue to explore every avenue to stop the project from happening.
