Former North Carolina Gov. Mike Easley, right, arrives at the Wake County Courthouse for a court hearing in Raleigh, N.C., Tuesday, Nov. 23, 2010. The hearing follows a yearlong probe into Easley&#39;s campaign finances. The State Board of Elections fined Easley&#39;s campaign committee &#36;100,000 in October. Board members referred the case to prosecutors, determining there was enough evidence to show the committee failed to report dozens of flights between 1999 and 2004.  <span class=meta>(AP Photo&#47; Jim R.
