## Resource

North Carolinas former State Treasurer Dale Folwell and his office settled a lawsuit with Caitlin Jones for $320,000, following comments that cost her a job offer as Spring Lakes town manager. The lawsuit stemmed from past roles and an old equal employment complaint, with Jones alleging false and misleading statements, including racial undertones. The treasurers office clarified they never questioned her skills or past legal moves. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
