6 N.C. App. 419

William E. ROBERTS, Beulah C. Roberts, and Dianne Roberts Short, a minor, appearing herein by her next friend William E. Roberts v. Walter Vance SHORT, Myrtle Short and Johnny Short.

Court of Appeals of North Carolina.

October 22, 1969.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Bobby W. Rogers, Henderson, for plaintiff appellants.

James C. Cooper, Jr., Henderson, for defendant appellees.


GRAHAM, Judge.

By stipulation during the hearing, the mother abandoned any claim she may have had to the custody of her daughter. It then followed that the father alone had the natural and legal right to the custody of the child unless for substantial and sufficient reasons it was determined that the interest and welfare of the child required that he be denied that right. Wilson v. Wilson, 269 N.C. 676
