No. 8313DC781.

318 S.E.2d 348 (1984)

John C. BROOKS, Commissioner of Labor of the State of North Carolina v. John Alexander GOODEN and Ward Lumber Company.

Court of Appeals of North Carolina.

August 7, 1984.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Atty. Gen. Rufus L. Edmisten by Asst. Atty. Gen., Tiare B. Smiley, Raleigh, for petitioner-appellee.

McCarty, Wilson, Rader & Mash by Robert E. Rader, Jr., Ennis, Tex., pro hac vice; Saccomanno, Clegg, Martin & Kipple by Lynn L. Laughlin, Houston, Tex., and Hester, Hester & Johnson by W. Leslie Johnson, Jr., Elizabethtown, for respondent-appellant Ward Lumber Company.


EAGLES, Judge.

Respondent Ward contends that "[t]his case poses simple but profoundly important constitutional questions." We note, however, that jurisdictional restrictions limit our consideration to the issues of whether respondents' motions to stay the district court proceedings and for a continuance were properly denied and whether the trial court correctly found respondent in civil contempt for failure to comply with the administrative inspection warrant.
