Among the latest batch of opinions from the N.C. Court of Appeals:
- A unanimous three-judge panel affirmed a lower-court ruling in favor of Wake Forest in a dispute over new residential development on the site of the Wake Forest Golf & Country Club.
- A unanimous three-judge panel rejected most of an appeal from a man convicted in connection with a drive-by shooting outside a Clinton barber shop in 2008. The defendant had claimed violations of his constitutional right against double jeopardy and his constitutional right to be present for sentencing proceedings. The only part of the appeal on which the defendant prevailed was on victim restitution, which would drop in the Appeals Court’s order from $15,760 to $15,400.
- A unanimous three-judge panel upheld a lower-court ruling against Buncombe County parents charged with violating the state’s compulsory school attendance law by allowing their 14-year-old daughter to skip school.
