Supreme Court of North Carolina

Decided June 15, 1846

Supreme Court of North Carolina · decided 1846-06-15

Cause transmitted from the Court of Equity of Davie County, at the Spring Term, 1845.

Decided 1846-06-15

Daniel, J.

¶1Ordinarily, it is not the course of the Court to refer partnership accounts to the master to be reported on, with a set of instructions from the Court, as appears to have been desired by the parties, when the proceedings were drawn, but no motion was made to that effect, "When the master’s report comes in, if either party is dissatisfied with it, he may except to it or any part of it, and the exceptions thus made will thereafter be argued, and decided on by the Court. We think that there must in the first place be a reference to the master, and a report by him on their account. Let it be referred.

Per Curiam.

¶2Ordered accordingly.
