No. 25065.

339 S.C. 8 (2000)

528 S.E.2d 408

STATE of South Carolina, ex rel. Charles M. CONDON as attorney general of South Carolina, Appellant, v. CITY OF COLUMBIA, Respondent.

Supreme Court of South Carolina.

Decided February 14, 2000.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Attorney General Charles M. Condon, Senior Assistant Attorney General Nathan Kaminski, Jr., Assistant Attorney General Christie Newman Barrett, all of Columbia, and S. Jahue Moore of Kirkland Wilson Moore Allen & Taylor, West Columbia, for appellant.

James S. Meggs of Columbia, for respondent.


WALLER, Justice:

Appellant (the State) brought a lawsuit against respondent (City) in 1996, challenging a 1989 "strip" or "shoestring" annexation that led to the annexation of portions of Lexington County. A circuit judge granted City's summary judgment motion and dismissed the case without addressing the legitimacy of the strip annexation. Thus, that issue is not before us.1 The State appeals. We affirm in part and reverse in part.
