After winning the election and two recounts, Democrat Allison Riggs' NC Supreme Court victory is still under attack. Her opponent, Rep. Judge Jefferson Griffin, is asking the GOP-controlled court to throw out over 60,000 votes—without presenting any evidence of fraud.

The North Carolina Supreme Court’s decision to block the certification of Democratic Justice Allison Riggs’ election victory is a direct attack on democracy. Over 5.5 million voters cast their ballots, & now a Republican-dominated court is undermining their choice. apnews.com/article/nort...

No. 320P24
SUPREME COURT OF NORTH CAROLINA
***************
JEFFERSON GRIFFIN
From N.C. Board of Elections
v.
NORTH CAROLINA BOARD OF ELECTIONS
***************
ORDER
On 18 December 2024, petitioner filed a petition for writ of prohibition and
motion for temporary stay related to the 2024 election for a Seat 6 on Supreme Court of North Carolina. Prior to filing a response or this Court taking action on petitioner's
filings, respondent Board of Elections filed with this Court on 19 December 2024 a
notice of removal of this action to the United States District Court for the Eastern
District of North Carolina. On 6 January 2025, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina remanded the matter to this Court.
Even though we received notice from the Board of Elections of its appeal of the
order from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North
Carolina, in the absence of a stay from federal court, this matter should be addressed expeditiously because it concerns certification of an election.
Therefore, petitioner's motion for temporary stay is allowed, and the Court
upon its own motion sets the following expedited briefing schedule concerning the
writ of prohibition:

GRIFFIN V. STATE BOARD OF ELECTIONS
No. 320P24
Order of the Court
Petitioner shall file his brief on or before 14 January 2025;
Respondent shall file its response on or before 21 January 2025; and
Petitioner shall file his reply brief on or before 24 January 2025.
By order of the Court in Conference, this the 7th day of January 2025.
Is/ Allen, J.
For the Court
Riggs, J., recused
Earls, J. dissents on the grounds that the standard for a temporary stay has not been met here, where there is no likelihood of success on the merits and the public interest requires that the Court not interfere with the ordinary course of democratic processes as set by statute and the state constitution.
Further dissents or concurrences, if any, will be filed through an Amended Order.
WITNESS my hand and the seal of the Supreme Court of North Carolina, this
the 7th day of January 2025.
