SCV Wins Appeal

Tuesday, December 29, 1998

The North Carolina state Court of Appeals rules that the Sons of Confederate Veterans is entitled to a special license plate.

The SCV had applied for a special vehicle license plate under a state law that allows such plates for members of "nationally recognized civic organizations". The NC Division of Motor Vehicles had earlier ruled against the application. However, a Wake County judge today rejected the DMV's arguments.
