 More court injunctions were issued, ordinances were passed, and fines were assessed but Denver Union Water ignored all of them.In a case brought by McMurry before the District Court of Arapahoe County, the court sided with the water company and found that conflicting clauses were impractical to implement and allowed the water company to increase its rates.McMurry continued to pressure the company to lower its rates, but had no power to force it to do so.
