N.C. Ct. App. Leg. Stand., CIVIL - TRIAL MATTERS, Specific Performance
As amended through December 11, 2024
"The sole function of the equitable remedy of specific performance is to compel a party to do that which in good conscience he ought to do without court compulsion. The remedy rests in the sound discretion of the trial court, and is conclusive on appeal absent a showing of a palpable abuse of discretion. Munchak Corp. v. Caldwell, 46 N.C. App. 414, 418, 265 S.E.2d 654, 657 (1980) (citations omitted), modified on other grounds, 301 N.C. 689, 273 S.E.2d 281 (1981).
