ARC NCCHRNC001, LLC.<\/u>, (25-488). \u00a0A three-judge panel consisting of Chief Judge Chris Dillon, Judge\u00a0April\u00a0Wood,\u00a0and Judge John Tyson presided over the hearing.<\/p>\n<p>The N.C. Court of Appeals held its session in the 120-seat courtroom which serves as a classroom and lecture facility. The Law School, now in its second year of instruction and since August of this year housed in its own distinct building on the High Point University Campus, provided a unique and special location for the Court to hear the case.

He noted that for \u201cmany law students and particularly attorneys \u2013 viewing or even appearing before an appellate court is not a common experience and for our law students to have such an opportunity at this time in their \u2018careers\u2019 is a tremendous benefit to add to their legal education.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3832 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/law\/files\/2025\/11\/251023-Appeals-035-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"251023 Appeals 035\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/law\/files\/2025\/11\/251023-Appeals-035-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/law\/files\/2025\/11\/251023-Appeals-035-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/law\/files\/2025\/11\/251023-Appeals-035-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/law\/files\/2025\/11\/251023-Appeals-035-1536x1022.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/law\/files\/2025\/11\/251023-Appeals-035-2048x1363.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/law\/files\/2025\/11\/251023-Appeals-035-1428x950.jpg 1428w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>During the hearing the entire first-year law student class, as well as many of the second-year law students, law faculty and staff, and members of the legal community were in attendance to observe the oral arguments \u2013 filling the courtroom.\u00a0\u00a0At the\u00a0conclusion of the session, the\u00a0Judges and Attorneys who participated in the oral argument provided a rare opportunity for the law students to discuss what they had just experienced in a forum-styled setting.<\/p>\n<p>Following the forum discussion, those in attendance were provided lunch which was sponsored by\u00a0the High Point and Greensboro Bar Associations. Even during the luncheon, the Judges and local bar members provided an opportunity for the law students to engage in further questions and discussion about the case and appellate procedure.<\/p>\n<p>Of further note, in keeping with the expectation of the Dean to have close connections between the students and members of the judiciary, the law school is honored to have both Chief Judge Chris Dillon and Judge April Wood teaching classes this semester with Chief Judge Dillion teaching Real Estate Transactions and\u00a0Judge\u00a0April Wood teaching\u00a0Negotiations.<\/p>\n<p>Dean Mark Martin further stated:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe are so grateful for the N.C.
