In the opinion filed this date in Holbrook v. Holbrook, 38 N.C. App. 303, 247 S.E. 2d 923 (1978), we affirmed the ruling of the Forsyth County Court in which defendant-husband had filed his divorce and custody action that defendant-husband was a resident of Forsyth County at the time he commenced his action there. Because defendant-husband’s action in Forsyth County was properly maintained there, and because we held in that opinion that G.S. 50-13.5(f) conferred exclusive jurisdiction of all custody matters on the Forsyth County Court until a final judgment should be entered, the Guilford County Court was without jurisdiction to consider this independent custody action or matters arising therein. The order of the District Court, Guilford *310County, denying defendant-husband’s motion to dismiss is vacated, and this cause is remanded for entry of an order dismissing this action.

Vacated and remanded.
