RYAN BOLICK (Charlotte) successfully appealed a denial of a Motion for Summary Judgment on behalf of a teacher based upon the doctrine of sovereign immunity.

On appeal, the Court of Appeals reversed this finding and held that sovereign immunity applied to the teacher as she was not sued in her individual capacity.
