out of the building in time virginia beach is in jeopardy of losing millions of dollars in state funding to extend light rail are jimmy lee is live at town center with more on the ultimatum from state leaders of this is where the city wants to extend the light rail to from norfolk and ultimately the one taking all the way down to the ocean prime. but the city is in desperate need of state funding because there is no federal money for this and with the possibility of this issue going to referendum in november secretary of real angel says that he can not support a project that's contingent on a boat because that would be fiscally irresponsible twenty one hundred and eighty three dollars for each city treasurer john atkinson crunching the numbers in his office and often right now the taxpayers are paying thirteen dollars and twenty six cents per round trip. he says extending the light rail to virginia beach is just too

to go to referendum. but if that happens the city could lose a hundred and fifty five million dollars in state funding. secretary of transportation aubrey layne told delegate ron villa nueva in the latter but the money would go back into the state's high priority projects program because the state can only fund projects to completion so far atkinson has gathered seventeen thousand of the twenty seven thousand signatures he needs to put it on the ballet was first in the presidential primary on super tuesday we're going to have man every precinct weekend and i fully expect to get another ten thousand signatures. my stomach leases the executive director of virginia beach vision she says the region needs a multimillion transportation system in order to grow if we got to be gridlock and we're not going to be able to bring new businesses new jobs in the area she says without this funding the region may lose its chance to extend light rail once and for all

for the city to come up for the region to come up with the kind of dollars necessary to do it independent and i spoke with mayor will stephens on the phone today and he told me that he is in the process of writing secretary lane a letter to get some more for clarification because he believes that the money shouldn't be jeopardized as long as the referendum does not affect the actual timeline of the project and coming up tonight i sit down tell you exactly what john the signatures he needs to bring this issue to referendum now reporting live in virginia beach on jimmy me thirteen years now. right now there's a fierce debate over who will replace late supreme court justice antonin scalia asked leah died over the weekend and his death has set up a big political battle senate majority leader mitch mcconnell says the next president should nominate scaly as replacement. the gop presidential candidates agree top democrats say the process should move forward and president obama has promised to nominate a

confirm or deny that appointee when election is over the president plans to have a chance to send qualified nominees of their philosophy to the senate will vote for the mets are qualified even though i would not have chose them with scaly a seat open that leaves a sitting supreme court justices meaning of four for ty as possible this could be bad news for former governor bob mcdonnell like gooding is here to explain that lets ride even if in fact there were a tie then the lower court's ruling would withstand which of course was guilty of public corruption with a sense of two years in prison. one local legal scholar told me today that that's still a big enough the death of u s supreme court justice antonin scalia could have an impact on former governor bob mcdonnell's appeal or it might not at all. well i don't think we should pre suppose what justice scalia would die and back eighties field evans is the sandra day o'connor professor of law at

mary's marshall with school of law the future will tell us that al of whether the governor is said with a four four split or whether identify three or six two decision even unanimous decision most supreme court decisions. actually our unanimous decisions last year a three judge panel the richmond based fourth u s circuit court of appeals unanimously upheld mcdonald's convictions and the full appeals court declined to re hear the case but then the supreme court agreed last month to hear madonna's appeal sometime in april without scaly although there could potentially be a four four time the court which would affirm the fourth us circuit upholding the convictions and mcdonnell would begin a two year prison sentence the way mary xd evans isn't so sure it'll play out like that. i think it's very hard to read the tea leaves and maybe that the justices work hard and achieving consensus and not appearing as if their partisan and too real possibility that we'll see surprising number of unanimous decisions that are

the region after for the court to stand up is a court of law as opposed to a court of politics and that's a real possibility and it's also a real possibility the corps will provide four to form partisan lines it's really hard to predict what will happen. i had just run in to make da last thursday two days before scaly had died and at that time he mcdonnell was upbeat about his chances before the supreme court. i reached out for comment today from the mcdonnell legal team i was told by their spokesman. i don't envision respond to this time but will let you know if i hear otherwise. reporting live by cutting thirteen is now a virginia beach man charged in an up skirting incident thirteen is now learned this isn't the first time he's been accused of taking inappropriate pictures and very public places. parents trust that the person teaching their child is safe to be in the classroom but
