A court hearing to determine the fate of Shooters Grill in Rifle was continued Monday so owner Lauren Boebert can have time to find a lawyer.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had less than 24 business hours to prepare for this,\u201d Boebert said via video conference before District Judge Anne Norrdin on Monday morning, explaining she needs time to find legal counsel and to line up witnesses on her behalf.<\/p>\n

Attorney Heather Beattie, representing the Garfield County Department of Public Health for the County Attorney\u2019s Office, agreed to the continuance. The county\u2019s case against Boebert and Shooters is scheduled for 1:30 p.m. May 26, again via Webex.<\/p>\n

A temporary restraining order and a separate 30-day suspension of Shooters\u2019 food service license ordered by the county on Friday remain in effect. That means Shooters is unable to operate in any capacity until the court lifts the restraining order and the restaurant license is reinstated by the county.<\/p>\n
