Judge Terrence Boyle on Wednesday denied the State of North Carolina’s motion to remand its lawsuit against Alcoa back to state court. With that ruling, the lawsuit shall remain in federal court.
Alcoa has maintained that the suit belongs in federal court because the case revolves around the question of navigability as defined by Federal law. Judge Boyle agreed, noting that "questions of navigability for determining state riverbed title are governed by federal law."
