Dunn v. Taylor
Charles F. Dunn v. A. W. Taylor, Sheriff.
Opinion of the Court
Stacy, J.
The December Term of court ended in Kinston when the judge left the bench for the term, although no notice was given of the final adjournment, and it was understood that the term of court should expire by limitation.
Delafield v. Const. Co., 115 N. C., 21 ;
Branch v. Walker, 92 N. C., 87 . His Honor, therefore, was without authority to enter the order, signed at his home in Clinton, canceling or vacating the judgment previously rendered by him at term. The plaintiff’s exception to this order must be sustained; but this will be done without prejudice to the rights of the defendant to assail the judgment rendered at the December term, or to have it vacated by motion in the cause or other appropriate remedy.
