City Circuit Court postpones Confederate statues tarps decision
Charlottesville Circuit Court Judge Richard E. Moore oversaw the latest hearing in a lawsuit filed against the City and members of City Council to stop the removal of the statue of Confederate General Robert E. Lee from Emancipation Park in downtown Charlottesville Monday. Moore declined to make a decision regarding coverings placed by the City of Charlottesville on the statues of Lee and Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson. The coverings will remain until Moores finishes his deliberations, which he expects to go until Feb. 27.
