The rule of law


Some of North Carolina's top judges, attorneys and legal experts will gather this month to discuss something taken for granted in the United States, but which is rare in many parts of the world — the rule of law.

Former Govs. Jim Hunt and Jim Holshouser are among the scheduled speakers at the Rule of Law Conference, which is to be held at the N.C. Bar Center in Cary on July 26, reports Rob Christensen.

The half-day confernce is being organized locally by Supreme Court Justice Mark Martin and Appeals Court Judge Jim Wynn.

It is part of the American Bar Association’s World Justice Project, which is trying to spread the rule of law around the world.
