The first-place prize money remains in limbo

Remember the story of the fishing crew who caught the million dollar marlin in the 2010 Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament but were disqualified due to a crew member not having a valid fishing license? Well they sued, and now the case is is headed to the North Carolina Supreme Court.
