    v.
    Obie STEVENSON and Shirley M. Stevenson.

    No. 139A86.

    Supreme Court of North Carolina.

    July 2, 1986.

    Clontz & Clontz by Ralph C. Clontz III, Charlotte, for plaintiff-appellee.

    Roger Lee Edwards, Mooresville, for defendant-appellant.

    PER CURIAM.

    The trial court entered judgment on 23 August 1984, granting defendant's motion for directed verdict made at the close of plaintiff's evidence. A divided panel of the Court of Appeals held that the directed verdict was improvidently granted and ordered a new trial. Defendant Shirley M. Stevenson appealed to this court as a matter of right.

    The decision of the Court of Appeals is affirmed.

    AFFIRMED.
