   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  05-1725
                          and No:  05-1726
   District of Nebraska   
   [PUBLISHED] [Melloy, Author, with Colloton and Benton, Circuit Judges]
   Civil case - Telecommunications Act of 1996. Local dialing parity 
   is consistent with tandem routing and consistent with the
   Telecommunications Act of 1996, and the Nebraska Public Service
   Commission erred as a matter of law when it approved contract language
   that excused Great Plains from the local dialing parity obligations of
   Section 251(b)(3) of the Act; the Nebraska Public Service Commission
   did not act arbitrarily or capriciously when it set the reciprocal
   commission rate or the effective date for interim compensation; the
   Commission did, however, err when it filed to make the interim
   compensation symmetrical as required by 47 C.F.R. Sec. 57.715.
