Fayetteville Man Sues NC State, Claims Drunk Driver was Let Off too Easy

An ex resident of Fayetteville named Jeremy Bruns and his spouse Jenny have jointly filed a lawsuit against the state of North Carolina, the state where Michael Jordan is from and the same state with the Super Bowl team which is the Carolina Panthers, where they allege that a woman who was convicted of drunken driving did not serve sufficient prison time, according to fayobserver.com.

The woman in question was convicted of driving under the influence after she caused an accident in which Jeremy Bruns lost both his legs and a part of his arm. Additionally, Mr. Bruns has also named the drunk driver, her husband, and their son as defendants in the lawsuit which the couple filed themselves as they were unable to find a Fayetteville, NC DUI lawyer or any legal professional to represent them.

Superior Court Judge Reuben Young has been requested to dismiss the case by defending attorneys of all the defendants and has instead been asked to consider other alternatives to improve the situation. Young did make a comment to the press where he remarked that he is yet to come to a decision and will do so by next Monday.

North Carolina still battling the issue of underage drinking

After their recent Booze it & Lose it campaign which sought to curb drunken driving in North Carolina, the state has now introduced yet another campaign specifically to deal with underage drinking and driving. The campaign is called Talk It Out and is the brain child of Gov. Pat McCrory, as reported by dailytarheel.com.

Central West North Carolina DUI lawyers across the state are in agreement that the campaign makes sense and will create awareness among young people and parents alike about the dangers of alcohol abuse at a young age.
