Mills v. . Mills
Supreme Court of North Carolina · Decided June 14, 1933 · Stacy
169 S.E. 707; 204 N.C. 726; 1933 N.C. LEXIS 252 (South Eastern Reporter)

Mills v. . Mills

Opinion of the Court

Stacy, C. J.

As the judgment of 26 December, 1932, went beyond the purview of the case, in that, foreclosure was decreed at instance of mortgagor over objection of mortgagee, without adequate pleading or showing, and was evidently entered on a misapprehension of the facts— later attempted to be corrected — it would seem that, in order to preserve the rights of the parties, the judgment ought to be stricken out, as well as its attempted correction.

The judgment, therefore, will be vacated, and the cause remanded for further proceedings as to justice appertains and as the rights of the parties may require.

Error.
