Editor’s Note IV:
Defense Attorney Sean Perrin worked for the Cleveland County Department of Social Services in their losing battle in Rev. Dante Murphy’s first Federal lawsuit against CCDSS.
Defense Attorney Patrick Flanagan is presently representing the City of Shelby in a Federal Lawsuit for job-place discrimination brought by Shelby Gas Department employee Nivilla Campbell.
You have to wonder why the Commissioners, the School Board, the City of Shelby and the Cleveland Community College Board of Trustees don’t just abide by the laws Of North Carolina and the US Constitution in order to avoid Federal and State lawsuits. That is what you and I have to do.
