On Tuesday, January 4, the Construction Law Section of the North Carolina Bar Association held a “summit” for its members and members of the construction industry. The purpose of the meeting was to bring together lawyers and non-lawyers, along with the leadership of the NCBA’s other sections and industry lobbyists, to hear a report by the Lien/Bond Law Revision Committee on the progress of efforts to draft proposed legislation to update Articles 2 and 3 of Chapter 44A of the North Carolina General Statutes.
The meeting involved lively dialogue as the members of the drafting committee shared their ideas and proposals and received constructive feedback from industry representatives in attendance.
