No. 52A23

Decided: March 22, 2024

Lewis & Roberts, PLLC, Raleigh, by Matthew D. Quinn and James A. Roberts, III, and Mauney PLLC, by Gary V. Mauney, for plaintiff-appellants. Alston & Bird LLP, Raleigh, by Ryan P. Ethridge and Michael A. Kaeding; and Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton, & Garrison LLP, by Rober A. Atkins, pro hac vice, and Jeffrey J. Recher, pro hac vice, for defendant-appellee SS&C Technologies, Inc.

Justice DIETZ did not participate in the consideration or decision of this case. The remaining members of the Court are equally divided, with three members voting to affirm and three members voting to reverse the decision of the Court of Appeals. Accordingly, the decision of the Court of Appeals is left undisturbed and stands without precedential value. See Batson v. Coastal Res. Comm'n, 385 N.C. 328, 892 S.E.2d 589 (2023) (per curiam) (affirming by an equally divided vote a Court of Appeals decision without precedential value).

AFFIRMED.

PER CURIAM.
