Opinion of the Court — Oubiam

Per Oubiam.

C. S., 900, provides that “where a corporation is a party to the action, this examination may be made of any of its officers or agents.” When no pleadings have been filed the plaintiff by proper and sufficient affidavit may apply to the court for an order of examination.

Chesson v. Bank, 190 N. C., 187 , 129 S. E., 403 . And when a proper order for such examination has been duly made, an appeal therefrom to the Supreme Court is premature and will be dismissed.
