Judge denies Chavis bid for NAACP reinstatement

The Superior Court refused Benjamin Chavis Jr. immediate reinstatement as executive director of the NAACP. Judge Herbert Dixon said Chavis must await resolution of his lawsuit over his firing, noting the court cannot compel the NAACP to hire him back or force him to work.
