Grimes v. County of Beaufort

21 S.E.2d 827, 222 N.C. 41, 1942 N.C. LEXIS 16

Opinion

Devin, J.

Tbe appellants assign as error in tbe judgment below tbe approval of tbe referee’s conclusion of law tbat plaintiff’s claim was not barred by tbe statute of limitations. There was, however, no exception to tbe referee’s findings of fact upon which this conclusion of law was based. These findings were supported by competent evidence, and were adopted in all material respects by tbe court. Hence, tbe judgment in favor of tbe plaintiff upon tbe facts so established must be upheld. Wilkinson v. Coppersmith, 218 N. C., 173, 10 S. E. (2d), 670.

Judgment affirmed.
