N.C. DOT v. County of Durham, NO. COA06-283, COURT OF APPEALS OF NORTH CAROLINA, January 2, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: When the state department of transportation filed a condemnation suit against a county, the trial court properly denied the county's motion to dismiss based on sovereign immunity. Because under N.C. Const. art. VII, § 1, a county derived all of its sovereign immunity from the state, its sovereign immunity could not be superior to that of the state.

Okuma Am. Corp. v. Bowers, NO. COA 06-472, COURT OF APPEALS OF NORTH CAROLINA, January 2, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Trial court erred in ruling that the employer's covenant not to compete was overly broad and unenforceable as a matter of law; covenant's enforceability rested on questions of fact, could not be determined as a matter of law, and the employer's complaint did state a claim for which relief might be granted on some legal theory.

View this case - free  

Overview: Industrial Commission's opinion and award was remanded for additional findings of fact, because the Commission determined the existence of plaintiff's disability, but did not determine the extent of plaintiff's disability because it failed to address whether plaintiff was capable of earning the same wages he was earning at the time of his injury.

Plott v. Bojangle's Rests., Inc., NO. COA05-1690, COURT OF APPEALS OF NORTH CAROLINA, January 2, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: North Carolina Industrial Commission erroneously applied N.C. Gen. Stat. § 97-32 because that provision only applied where employer sought to discontinue disability payments, and here employer had denied benefits and matter was in litigation. Thus, even if claimant had accepted employer's job, he was receiving no benefits which could have resumed.

Sandy Mush Props. v. Rutherford County, NO. COA06-68, COURT OF APPEALS OF NORTH CAROLINA, January 2, 2007, Filed
View this case - free
