The North Carolina Institute for Constitutional Law is adding its support to plaintiffs challenging Greenville’s now-dismantled red-light camera enforcement program. The state’s highest court has agreed to hear a case focusing on the amount of red-light camera citation proceeds heading to local schools.
Greenville and the Pitt County school board urged the N.C. Supreme Court Wednesday to overturn a lower court ruling that threw out the city’s red-light camera enforcement program. Greenville ended the program last November, eight months after the N.C. Court of Appeals ruled the program unconstitutional.
Greenville City Council voted 5-1 on Monday to end its red-light camera enforcement program. The program had faced legal challenges, including a ruling against the city last March from the N.C. Court of Appeals.
