damages through his attorney, Daniel M. Williams Jr.
Named as defendants in separate suits were the Durham Herald

Durham Sun) and John N. Buck, the ABC officer.
Each of the two suits asked for $250,000 actual damages and
$250,000 punitive damages.

In each of the suits, Hopkins set forth the allegation that the

The suit against Buck charged him with the "slanderous" state

owned and published by the Durham Herald Company."
