Engineer being investigated for sharing information

Some pipes didn't carry away storm water. Wayne Nutt did some calculations based on information he gathered whey the pipes didn't work.

The homeowners are involved in a lawsuit over their flooded homes.

[Institute for Justice:] Wayne Nutt is an engineer. He graduated with a degree in engineering and worked most of his career in North Carolina without ever needing a license to actually work as an engineer. But now, the North Carolina Board of Examiners for Engineers and Surveyors is telling Wayne that speaking publicly about engineering without a state license could lead to criminal charges. Today, Wayne teamed up with the Institute for Justice (IJ) to file a federal lawsuit to protect his First Amendment right to speak from his expertise and experience.
