Wright’s Request to Delay Ethics Case Rejected

Published by Sam at 6:55 pm under Corruption, NC House, North Carolina, Thomas Wright, Wilmington Region

Just minutes after the Wilmington Democrat filed for re-election 130 miles away, a Wake County judge Thursday afternoon rejected state Rep. Thomas Wright’s request to delay a House ethics case because it could ruin his chance for a fair criminal trial.

The ruling clears the way for the House ethics committee to begin its evidentiary hearing Monday, although Wright’s legal team didn’t rule out appealing the decision today.
