HYTHE, Alta. - Alberta eco-activist Wiebo Ludwig says he needs more information on the basis for a peace bond application by three oil and gas companies.
His lawyer is expected to ask for an adjournment in the matter when it goes to court on Wednesday in Grande Prairie, Alta.
Ludwig says they need more specifics from the companies on the grounds for the peace bond application.
Police say Encana Corporation (TSX:ECA), Canadian Superior Energy (TSX:SNG) and Seaview Energy Inc., fear that these individuals will "cause personal injury to their employees or agents or will damage their property."
While Ludwig doesn't expect to make a personal appearance in court this week, it's expected an agent for his lawyer will apply to have the matter adjourned for at least three weeks.
The activist says while he doesn't know what type of information the companies may use to justify their application, he suggests they may try to use his previous legal run-ins to falsely paint him as a potentially violent character.
