N.C. Supreme Court issues (a few) opinions today
Following up on yesterday's column:
The N.C. Supreme Court released 13 opinions today, the first in two months.
Seven were per curiam, like this.
The six full opinions included one authored by Justice Bob Edmunds, here, and joined by the full court.
The others were written by Justice Robin Hudson (unanimous); Hudson again (Justice Patricia Timmons-Goodson dissenting); Justice Ed Brady (unanimous); Brady again, granting a new trial in a death-penalty case (unanimous); and Mark Martin, reversing a Court of Appeals ruling that overturned a first-degree murder conviction (unanimous).
I haven't had time to read these opinions, but a good source for commentary/explanation is the North Carolina Appellate Blog written by members of Womble Carlyle's Ralleigh Appellate Group. As of this moment, however, they haven't produced anything yet today
