Judge postpones Moore deposition

Richard Moore will not be facing a deposition soon after all.
Wake County Superior Court Judge Paul Gessner postponed a deposition of the state treasurer in a public records lawsuit until at least a month after the state's May 6 primary.
Attorneys for the State Employees Association of North Carolina, which is suing Moore over access to records on the state pension fund, had sought to interview him on Tuesday — the same day he is supposed to debate Beverly Perdue.
Ardis Watkins, legislative affairs director for SEANC, said the decision was disappointing. She said that Moore "has not been forthcoming at any state of this."
"For a gentleman who keeps going on TV saying he wants to be held accountable, it's remarkable to me that he won't make himself available or answer any written questions about the retirement system," she told Dome.
She said that SEANC wil continue to "vigorously pursue" the lawsuit.
