Today's special episode features highlights from a judicial forum hosted by Carolina Forward earlier this year with Justices Sam Ervin IV and Anita Earls. They talk about the makeup and function of the NC state courts, the increased politicization of the courts, the increase in partisanship around the Courts, and the importance of the rule of law and precedent in a healthy democracy.
