Supreme Court of North Carolina, 1932

Little v. . Little

Little v. . Little
Supreme Court of North Carolina · Decided December 14, 1932 · PER CURIAM.
166 S.E. 809; 203 N.C. 694; 1932 N.C. LEXIS 77 (South Eastern Reporter)

Little v. . Little

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

It is manifest from the findings of fact that the defendant is financially able to comply with the order of the court. The case of West v. West, 199 N. C., 12, is therefore not in point. The court found, moreover, that the defendant’s refusal to obey the order was wilful, “with utter contempt,” and characterized by an absence of any effort to respect the court’s direction. He alone is responsible for the consequences of his contemptuous conduct. Judgment

Affirmed.
