Appearand Error (§ 77*)—Appealable Order—Premature Appeal—Dismissal.
An order of the superior court reversing an order of the clerk dismissing a processioning proceeding and remanding the same to him for a proper order of survey was not appealable; defendant's remedy being to note an exception and permit the cause to proceed to a hearing, and then, if dissatisfied with the final result, to appeal therefrom on the exceptions so taken.
[Ed. Note.—For other cases, see Appeal and Error. Cent. Dig. §§444^63; Dec. Dig. § 77.*) Appeal from Superior Court, Carteret County; Foushee, Judge.
Processioning proceeding by W. S. Chad-wick against the Norfolk-Southern Railroad Company and others. From a judgment of the superior court reversing a judgment of the clerk, dismissing the proceedings and remanding the same to him for an order of survey, defendants appeal. Dismissed.
E. H. Gorham, of Morehead City, C. R. Thomas, of New Bern, and J. F. Duncan, of Beaufort, for appellants.
Guion & Guion, of New Bern, for appellee.
The plaintiff moves to dismiss this appeal in this court upon the ground that the same is premature. The clerk of the superior court dismissed the proceedings. Upon appeal at chambers, the judge presiding in the Third judicial district reversed the judgment of the clerk, and remanded the same to him, to the end that the proper order be made of survey, etc., in accordance with the statute. Rev. § 326.
We are of opinion that the motion to dismiss this appeal because it is premature should be allowed. It was the duty of the defendant to have noted every exception and let the cause proceed to the hearing under the statute, and then, if dissatisfied with the final result, upon exceptions properly taken, the cause can be heard in the superior court, and thence by appeal to this court
Appeal dismissed.
