NCADA Member, Lori Keeton Wins 4th Circuit Court Appeal. A split Fourth Circuit panel threw out a North Carolina police officer's nearly $1.7 million trial win in a sex discrimination case against the City of Charlotte, finding there wasn't enough evidence to show that Michael Tinsley — who had a lengthy disciplinary record — was fired because he's a man. The court disagreed with the comparison by the plaintiff to a female officer's record, who was not as severely disciplined for similar acts.
