Rockingham County and Commissioner Kevin Berger have filed a new motion asking the court to dismiss the lawsuit brought by outgoing Sheriff Sam Page, according to court records. It is the latest filing in a dispute that has run alongside this year's election season in the county.
Page won a state Senate seat last week after defeating Berger's father in the Republican primary earlier this year, and he lost his own bid for reelection as sheriff. His lawsuit names the county and Berger among the defendants.
No hearing date has been scheduled on the new motion. Page continues to serve as sheriff until his current term ends. Court filings in the case are available through the Rockingham County Clerk of Superior Court.
