 <description>&lt;p&gt;hmm, thought he was his own partner at his own firm in Fayettenam...guess the grass is a little greener in Charlotte, but frankly there&#039;s just too many loiwyers lurking everywhere, and why are so MANY of them stupid democrackkks?  (Oh yeah, they defend the oppressive system...)&lt;/p&gt;</description>

Democratic chairman Jerry Meek, who plans to marry a Charlotte legislator this year, will join a law firm Monday that has offices in Charlotte and Raleigh.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Meek will join Poyner &amp;amp; Spruill, one of North Carolina&amp;#39;s oldest and largest firms. He now works for a Fayetteville law firm, Jim Morrill reports.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The move gives Meek a professional foothold in Charlotte, where he&amp;#39;ll &lt;a href=&quot;/under_the_dome/democratic_wedding_plans&quot;&gt;marry&lt;/a&gt; Democratic state Rep. &lt;a href=&quot;http://ncleg.net/gascripts/members/viewMember.pl?sChamber=House&amp;amp;nUserID=576&quot;&gt;Tricia Cotham&lt;/a&gt; in December.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;This was a good time to sort of transition,&amp;quot; Meek said this afternoon. &amp;quot;I know I&amp;#39;m going to get married to someone who&amp;#39;s going to be spending a lot of time in Charlotte and some time in Raleigh.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Meek&amp;#39;s term as chairman ends in January. He expects to move to Charlotte then. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The December wedding date fits conveniently between the November election and the start of the new General Assembly in January.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
