SUMMARY: A decision is pending in North Carolina regarding the certification of Judge Allison Riggs as the winner of a Nov. 5 state Supreme Court seat. Judge Jefferson Griffin filed a motion to return the case from federal to state court and requested an injunction to block the certification by the State Board of Elections. Griffin, the petitioner, argues the case lacks subject-matter jurisdiction. He led Riggs by 9,851 votes on Election Night, but Riggs gained a 10,585-vote lead after absentee and provisional ballots were added. Griffin’s protests over over 60,000 ballots and other election issues have been dismissed.

SUMMARY: A tragic crash on Clayton Boulevard resulted in the death of a 19-year-old, with driver Jay Guadalupe Moreno Neas, 48, facing DWI charges. Police report that Neas had a blood alcohol content of .17, over twice the legal limit. He ran a stoplight, striking the victim’s car. Charged with felony death by motor vehicle, DWI, and other offenses, Neas’s actions serve as a reminder of the dangers of drunk driving, which accounts for a significant number of traffic fatalities. In response, North Carolina has introduced House Bill 400, aiming to impose stricter penalties on impaired drivers. Neas is scheduled to return to court on April 3rd.
