A date has been set for a North Carolina court to hear Florida State's motion to dismiss or stay the Atlantic Coast Conference's lawsuit against the FSU Board of Trustees on March 22.

Greg Flugar of College Football's Peek Around the Corner reported on the notice Friday morning. In the document, it states that a Mecklenburg County business court will hear the case between FSU and the conference.

FSU - which is the defendant in the case - has asked the court to review the case to stay or dismiss it.

If the case isn't dismissed in North Carolina, FSU will ask that it be stayed so its lawsuit in Florida can proceed.

The Seminoles asked a North Carolina court for dismissal of the ACC’s lawsuit there on Wednesday. The reasoning among other things, was premature and filed improperly without the required vote of conference membership, according to the ACC constitution.

The ACC originally filed its lawsuit against FSU on Dec. 21, 2023, a day before the Seminoles’ Board of Trustees approved its lawsuit against the conference.
