Justice Department at WASHINGTON -- Several key members of Congress and the Republican National Committee recently filed briefs in the U.S. Supreme Court opposing the Reagan administration in a major voting rights case concerning North Carolina. Among them was Sen. Robert Dole, a Kansas Republican. The briefs said the administration had misstated the intent of the Voting Rights Act concerning a redistricting plan for North Carolina. A panel of federal judges overruled the redistricting plan, which was implemented by the North Carolina Legislature last year. The federal judges said the plan diluted the power of black voters. The Justice Department stepped in on the side of the Legislature against blacks who said their voting power had been hurt by redistricting in a way to give whites an advantage. Republican officials said that districting that limits black representation also hurts Republican chances in Democratic states in the South. The redisricting plan was prepared by the mostly Black couple robs n Compiled by DAVID R.

Three Federal judges ruled last year that the plan harmed black voters because even though it would have been possible to draw some districts with black majorities, most of the districts had white majorities. Republicans argued that the districting plan hurt Republican interests. The Justice Department said during last year's case that the Voting Rights Act was designed to assure access to the electoral process and "not to assure victories for minority candidates." The department said that nothing in the Voting Rights Act permitted election boundaries that assured that blacks would be elected. The Republican National Committee's decision to oppose the Justice Department in this case appears to show resistance to the administration's civil rights policies. The Reagan administration's position on civil rights has been under criticism from the Democrats, and this criticism is now spreading to the Republicans as well. nan on Rich A venue him against it while the other took the victim's wallet and money from the glove compartment.
