Both cases regarding the recent altercation between former Derma policeman Byron Talford and Calhoun City store owner Buck Langford have been moved to Calhoun County Justice Court.
Buck Langford and Byron Talford
Both were charged with simple assault following a physical altercation in the parking lot of Clint’s Pit Stop in Bruce on Sunday, Dec. 8.
Langford’s charges against Talford were filed in the county court, but Talford’s charges against Langford were filed in Bruce city court.
That case came before the court last Wednesday when Langford’s attorney Eddie Lancaster requested the case be moved to the county court to coincide with the other.
Bruce Prosecutor Ben Suber and Judge Ottis Crocker agreed to transfer the case to Pittsboro. A date for the case to come before the county judge has not yet been determined.
