Supreme Court of North Carolina · Decided September 22, 1937 · PER CURIAM.

Meekins v. Coastal Game Preserves

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

Tbe order appealed from granted tbe plaintiff thirty days within which to amend tbe complaint and affidavits upon which tbe attachment was based. Tbe power of tbe court to permit amendments of pleadings and process is ample (Rushing v. Ashcraft, 211 N. C., 627). Hence, tbe appeal before tbe time within which amendments were permitted to be filed was premature. What amendments, if any, will be made and their effect upon defendants’ motion cannot now be properly determined. Tbe cause is remanded to the Superior Court for’further proceedings, the defendants’ exception being preserved. Thomas v. Carteret County, 180 N. C., 109; Farr v. Lumber Co., 182 N. C., 725.

Remanded.
