Lawhon v. McArthur

213 N.C. 260

Opinion

Stacy, C. J.

The facts are in dispute, and the case involves the cutting of timber trees. C. S., 845; Stewart v. Munger, 174 N. C., 402, 93 S. E., 927. The usual course in such circumstances is to continue the restraining order to the hearing, or else to require the defendant to give bond in the meantime. C. S., 846; Lewis v. Lumber Co., 99 N. C., 11, 5 S. E., 19; Lumber Co. v. Wallace, 93 N. C., 22; R. R. v. Transit Co., 195 N. C., 305, 141 S. E., 882. At any rate there was error in dismissing the action. Grantham v. Nunn, 188 N. C., 239, 124 S. E., 309; Sutton v. Sutton, 183 N. C., 128, 110 S. E., 77; Bradshaw v. Comrs., 92 N. C., 278; McIntosh, N. C. Prac. & Proc., 994.
