Judge dismisses eviction notice served to low-income dental clinic

A judge recently dismissed an eviction notice served to the St. Mary’s Health Center Medical and Dental Clinic in Wilmington, N.C., WECT reported Sept. 4. Volunteers at the center said they received a notice from the Basilica of St. Mary in April telling them to vacate the building by July 1 with no explanation. Laura Vinson, executive director at the clinic, said the center had to stay open past the deadline because the staff couldn’t find a place to relocate and because the center still had patients to serve. The clinic was then served with an eviction notice in August.
