Judge grants injunction against BW mayor

COLUMBIA – A ruling has been handed down in the Town of Blythewood lawsuit in which four members of the Blythewood Town Council – Mayor Pro Tem Donald Brock, Rich McKenrick, Andrea Fripp, and Erica Page – filed for a temporary and permanent injunction to stop Blythewood Mayor Sloan Griffin from enforcing his Executive Order No. 3 concerning his ability to hire town hall employees. 

Judge Daniel Coble – in the Richland County Court of Common Pleas – has ruled that the Council’s Motion for Temporary and Permanent Injunction is granted.

This is a developing story and more information will be posted later this morning.
