194 S.E. 282 | N.C. | 1937
Civil action to recover damages for death of plaintiff's intestate, alleged to have been caused by the wrongful act, neglect, or default of the defendants.
Plaintiff's cause of action arises out of a collision between an automobile, in which her intestate was riding as a guest, and defendants' passenger train at a crossing in the city of High Point.
The circumstances under which the collision occurred, according to plaintiff's allegations, are detailed in paragraph five of the complaint.
The allegations of this paragraph are denied in the answer, and, following the denial, the defendants set out the facts as they understand them. *665
There was a motion to strike out the defendants' recital of the facts as being "evidentiary, irrelevant, and incompetent." This motion was allowed in the municipal court of the city of High Point and reversed on appeal to the Superior Court of Guilford County.
From this latter ruling, plaintiff appeals, assigning error.
Affirmed on authority of Poovey v. Hickory,
