State employees didn’t have a choice when Gov. Bev Perdue announced their pay was going to be cut, but they could have time off to make up for it. But the state’s elected officials (including judges) did have a choice. They had to agree to the cut. Turns out not all judges are:
admin
About 20 North Carolina judges have not agreed to take the same pay cut that state employees must absorb, in spite of a request by Gov. Beverly Perdue.
The judges offered several reasons for their decisions. Some said they were taking a principled stand for an independent judiciary, and some disagreed with the governor’s proposal. Others said there was no way that judges could take the furlough that is part of the pay cut. Others could not be reached by reporters or the state.
