(Richmond)- The fate of Richmond’s Robert E. Lee statue is expected to be decided tomorrow.  Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring is asking a circuit court judge to cancel an injunction barring the statue’s removal.  Governor Ralph Northam ordered the statue to be taken down earlier this summer, but it’s been halted due to several lawsuits.  The Lee statue is the lone Confederate memorial left on Monument Avenue.
