Wake County DWI Case Management Plan 1-year Anniversary

Today is the one year anniversary of Wake County's "Pilot DWI Case Management Plan", which was adopted by the court to streamline case management of Wake County DWIs and ensure greater opportunity for meaningful hearings. According to the memo published with the Plan, one of the significant changes to Wake County DWI administration is "reduction in the number of court dates/settings for a typical DWI case" which was predicted to reduce the time spent by attorneys appearing in court for continuances and less missed work for defendants. Since I did not defend Wake County DWIs prior to adoption of the Pilot Plan, I can't comment on whether it achieves its stated goals. However, the Court should be reviewing its effectiveness in the coming months. 
Possibly because the Plan is still in the "pilot" phase, it is not published on the NC Courts website.

Felony Larceny by Removing Anti-Shoplifting Device (Originally Posted by Sean Cecil Feb 12, 2016)

https://edelsteinpayne.com/criminal-defense Felony Larceny by Removing Anti-Shoplifting Device Originally Posted by Sean Cecil Feb 12, 2016 (0 Comments) As I am still fairly new to the North Carolina Bar and the practice of criminal defense here in NC, I was surprised to recently be in a consultation with an individual whose petty shoplifting allegation was charged as a felony because of the additional allegation that he had removed a security device.  Shoplifting in North Carolina can be charged as a felony if the value of the goods stolen exceeds $1,000.00. It can also be a felony in some other circumstances, including if the person has four or more prior convictions for larceny.  Under North Carolina General Statute Sect. 14-72.11(2), a person is guilty of a Class H felony if the person commits larceny against a merchant "by removing, destroying, or deactivating a component of an antishoplifting or inventory control device  to prevent the activation of any antish

Home Healthcare Workers are Entitled to Overtime Pay (Originally Posted by Sean Cecil Jul 06, 2016)

https://edelsteinpayne.com/employment-law Home Healthcare Workers are Entitled to Overtime Pay Originally Posted by Sean Cecil Jul 06, 2016 (0 Comments) Long the subject of a terribly unfair rule that exempted them from such standard employment rights as overtime and minimum wage, home healthcare workers are among the worst treated of American workers. Home Healthcare workers hired through a third-party staffing agency have been exempted from those rules since 1974! The Obama administration attempted to remedy this injustice in 2013, and the result has been tied up in courts until last week, when the United States Supreme Court ruled that they would not hear further appeal (the administration's rulemaking prevailed in the court of appeals) effectively ratifying the rule. Home healthcare workers, including, nurses, certified nursing assistants, physical therapists, and others who provide services to the elderly and infirm to help keep them out of nursing homes, provid
