Suspended for misconduct, Molnar’s critics say the merger—backed by NorthWestern Energy—is really a gateway for costly data centers, not just power expansion. His legal team filed a lawsuit claiming his unique insights into witness testimony and confidential evidence are irreplaceable, demanding all five commissioners be involved. NorthWestern dismisses the suit as unnecessary, insisting substitute commissioners can access all materials and make informed decisions. The group warns the merger could saddle Montanans with an $18 one-time fee, and the outcome now hinges on a judge’s ruling.
