Railroad Rehearing Rejected by North Carolina High Court
The North Carolina Supreme Court upheld a Wake County lower court ruling that the State Utilities Commission failed to follow state law when granting a 9 percent intrastate freight rate increase to railroads. The ICC later nulled court decisions by issuing a parallel order, causing railroads to collect higher rates in the interim. The petition seeks repayment of the excess charges to shippers for the gap between the utilities order and the ICC action.
