West v. Coppersmith

Supreme Court of North Carolina
Feb 1, 1931
156 S.E. 927 (N.C. 1931)

Opinion

(Filed 18 February, 1931.)

APPEAL by defendants from Harris, J., at November Term, 1930, of PASQUOTANK.

McMullan LeRoy for plaintiff.

Thompson Wilson for defendants.


Motion under C. S., 600, to set aside judgment by default and inquiry for excusable neglect. Motion denied. Defendants appeal.


There is neither finding nor evidence on the record sufficient to establish that the neglect of the defendants was legally excusable. Hence, the ruling must be upheld on authority of Sutherland v. McLean, 199 N.C. 345, and Pepper v. Clegg, 132 N.C. 312, 43 S.E. 906.

Affirmed.
