Orange County Superior Court Judge Allen Baddour filed his written order Thursday dismissing the controversial case between the SCV and the UNC System and the Board of Governors and voiding the settlement. Baddour had dismissed the lawsuit and voided the settlement in court last week and determined the SCV lacked the legal standing to sue, but he did not give his reasoning at the time.

The deal, negotiated behind closed doors, was originally settled in November 2019 and gave the SCV ownership of the statue and access to $2.5 million to preserve and display it.

The UNC System Board of Governors must find a new solution to the dispute over the Silent Sam Confederate monument. But chairman Randy Ramsey made clear at a board meeting Friday that the statue is not going to be the board’s primary focus.

“That monument does not educate students. It does not run the universities. It does not make governance decisions regarding our university,” Ramsey said after the meeting. “As much as it may be a newsmaker, I’m not going to let it distract this board going forward.”

Ramsey and UNC System interim President Bill Roper said there are many more important issues facing the Board of Governors and that members will not spend their time talking about the monument.

It's "polls" not "poles" and you are the only one who cares about the number of posts.

Actually champ I was referring to pole as in NASCAR pole position. Nice try though. Again, as many have said so many times; you do care because if you didn't you wouldn't make so many pointless posts. I truly don't mind if you post articles if you would state reasons for doing so. Posting an article for the sake of posting an article is just posting for the sake of posting. Padding those post counts. If I care about post counts I would make more than 20 posts a month. Again, nice try champ.

1. Poles is still wrong
2. If i post to pad my count, why do i never make the top 5?
3. You really aren’t very bright

To redirect this thread entirely................. speaking of NASCAR. I was in Charlotte 2 weeks ago and checked out the NASCAR hall of fame. Never have been a NASCAR follower but really enjoyed the Museum. I was in awe of the collection of cars they had and everything Was in suck good condition it looked like you could hop in and drive off.
