JUSTICE RIGGS’ COUNSEL FILES BRIEF IN SUPPORT OF A SWIFT RESOLUTION FOR VOTERS
Raleigh, N.C. – Counsel for Justice Allison Riggs filed a brief in support of the State Board of Elections’ petition for discretionary review of Griffin’s case to the North Carolina Supreme Court, highlighting the need for a swift resolution for voters and reducing the burden of this case on taxpayer resources.
In their legal filing, Justice Riggs’ counsel noted: “Justice Riggs agrees with the Board that a bypass petition in accordance with N.C. Gen. Stat. §7A-31(b) is warranted to accelerate the timeline to final resolution, to minimize the already significant burden of this dispute on judicial and taxpayer resources, and to address state law issues of exceptional public importance that all agree warrant ultimate resolution by this Court.”
