Distribution of NC General Statutes to every household.

Distribute the NC General Statutes to Every Household.

Why is this important?

Citizens are required to abide by the law but not in every case is the law intuitive or available to them prior to a lawsuit or criminal conviction. This leaves citizens two choices: hire an attorney and pay the exorbitant fees that they charge or inadequately represent themselves, pro se. The law should not be hidden from the citizens so just as the phone book is distributed yearly the state laws should be distributed to every household along with all revisions to the laws. In these economic times 80% of citizens cannot afford attorney fees and there is disparity in the courts against pro se litigants.
