Civil Practice – Jury & Jurors – Evidence – Exhibit – Deliberations – G.S. § 1-181.2 — First Impression (access required)

Redd v. WilcoHess, L.L.C. In a matter of first impression, we hold that G.S. § 1-181.2 supersedes Nunnery v. Baucom, 135 N.C. App. 556, 521 S.E.2d 479 (1999) on the issue of when a jury can have access to an exhibit during deliberations.

Labor & Employment – Public Employees – Whistleblower Act – County Board of Elections (access required)
