United States Fourth Circuit
N. CAROLINA RIGHT TO LIFE, INC. v. LEAKE, 02-2052/3
In a challenge to provisions of North Carolina's election and campaign finance laws, district court did not err in holding the context prong of an "express advocacy" test unconstitutional, nor in declaring a limit on contributions unconstitutional to the extent it applies to independent expenditure political action committees; court erred in failing to find a "major purpose" presumption unconstitutional.
