Superior Court of Guilford County in the Hest case rules part of 14-306.4 to be unconstitutional and dissolves the injunction preventing enforcement of the gambling laws against owners and operators of plaintiffs’ sweepstakes systems. Both parties appeal. During the same month, the Sandhill trial court determined that 14–306.4 was constitutional, dismissed the complaint in its entirety, and dissolved Sandhill’s preliminary injunction.
