Court | South Carolina Supreme Court |
Appeal and Error (§ 90*)—Appealable Order—Affecting Merits.
In a proceeding by the surety on the bond of a trustee to have her mortgage securing the bond transferred to other and less valuable property than that on which it was given, resisted by those who under the allegations of the com-
plaint would be entitled to the trust fund by way of remainder on the death of plaintiff, the life beneficiary, without issue, an order was made allowing amendment to the complaint, to the effect that such persons would be entitled by way of remainder to only part of the property, and that certain other persons would be entitled to the rest, and allowing the making of the other persons parties. Held, that the amendment raised a question which, while it might ultimately affect the rights of the parties, in some future action, did not affect the merits of the case under consideration, and so, under Code Civ. Proc. 1902, § 11, the order was unappealable.
