State Ex Rel. Kirkland v. Mangum
State Ex Rel. Kirkland v. Mangum
61 N.C. 177
Opinion of the Court
The only question which Seems to be presented ■ in the case is, whether the defendant had the right to compel the relator to testify as a witness ?
The relator is substantially the plaintiff, and we are not aAvare of any case in which, it was held that he was compelled to testify, and it is certainly against general principles. There is a recent statute making parties competent witnesses; but it was passed since the trial of this case, and •of course did not apply.
*178 If any other points were intended to be presented, they were not made at the bar, and are so obscurely stated that they are not considered.
Per Curiam. Judgment affirmed.
