The Hideout Town Council voted to enter a closed session to discuss matters of litigation during its Nov. 13 regular meeting.

The presiding official announced the council would "go into... to discuss matters of litigation," then asked for a motion to move into closed session. A motion was made and seconded; the transcript records participants saying "So moved" and "I'll second."

When the vote was taken, a participant identified as JJ said "Yes, sir," and a participant identified as Jonathan later answered "Yes." The presiding official then declared, "So motion carries," and the council recessed into closed session to address litigation-related matters. The transcript includes no detailed description of the litigation or any statutory citation beyond an unclear shorthand, "It's I and b." The record does not specify a complete vote tally or identify who moved and seconded by name.

No other substantive agenda items were discussed on the public record in the minutes provided; the meeting proceeded immediately into the closed-session portion after the motion.

The council did not announce a timetable for returning to open session or provide further public details about the litigation during the recorded portion of the meeting.
