John R. Wester was a featured speaker at the Mecklenburg County Bar's Lawyers' Luncheon Series on "McCrory v. Berger: Insight from Both Sides." Wester, along with Robinson Bradshaw attorneys David C. Wright III and Andrew A. Kasper, represented North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory and former governors Jim Martin and Jim Hunt in a challenge to the state legislature's authority to create commissions and appoint members. In January, the North Carolina Supreme Court ruled in the governors' favor. Read our coverage of the case here.
At the luncheon, Wester spoke alongside the opposing counsel to discuss the case's outcome and the future ramifications of the Court's decision.
