North Carolina Exemptions Legislative History

Profile picture for user Ed Boltz
By Ed Boltz, 12 December, 2021

Summary:

There is often an assertion that there is no legislative history for North Carolina exemptions. And while there certainly could have been substantially more, both in terms of quantity and quality, after both Kelly Newcomb and I separately spent many hours at the North Carolina Legislative Library scrolling through reels of microfiche, we wanted to make those results available to the North Carolina bench and bar.

More will be made available as time and circumstances permit, with any assistance being welcome.
