State Supreme Court Justice Anita Earls will not recuse herself from the court’s upcoming hearing in the long-running education funding case commonly known as Leandro. Earls, a Democrat, signed a 13-page order Wednesday rejecting Republican legislative leaders’ request that she step away from the case.
