Two Prince William County residents who sued elected members of the Board of County Supervisors will have their day in the Virginia Supreme Court.

The state high court agreed to hear the case brought by Alan "Brett" Gloss and Carol Fox, who are suing all five Democrats on the Board of County Supervisors individually. The suit alleges they violated Virginia's open meetings law in the days following the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis.

Board Chair At-large Ann Wheeler, Margaret Franklin (Woodbridge), Andrea Bailey (Potomac), Victor Angry (Neabsco), and Kenny Boddye (Occoquan) are the named defendants.
