GRIFFETH v. WATTS

No. 7426SC834.

210 S.E.2d 902 (1975)

24 N.C. App. 440

Sandra Kay Whitaker GRIFFETH v. Emily Loftin WATTS et al.

Court of Appeals of North Carolina.

January 15, 1975.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Edwards & Yates by Reginald L. Yates, Charlotte, for plaintiff-appellant.

Wade & Carmichael by J. J. Wade, Jr., Charlotte, for defendant-appellee Emily Watts.

BROCK, Chief Judge.

We believe that the directed verdict was improperly granted. In determining whether a motion for directed verdict should be granted, the test to be applied is whether the evidence, without weighing the credibility of the witnesses or otherwise considering the weight of the evidence, affords but one conclusion as to the verdict that reasonable men could have reached. See generally Cutts v. Casey, 278 N.C. 390
