Court of Appeals of North Carolina.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Bailey, Dixon, Wooten, McDonald, Fountain & Walker by John N. Fountain and Gary K. Joyner, Raleigh, Dwight H. Wheless, Manteo, for appellants.

Atty. Gen. Lacy Thornburg by Sr. Deputy Atty. Gen. William W. Melvin and Sp. Deputy Atty. Gen. Reginald L. Watkins, Raleigh, for appellee.


PARKER, Judge.

Appellants contend, and the State concedes, that Judge Chaffin's order was entered without following necessary procedural requirements for jurisdiction and due process. Specifically, the injunctive order was not issued incident to any pending action. No complaint was filed and no summons was issued. Therefore, the court did not have jurisdiction to issue an injunction. Swindell v. Overton, 62 N.C. App. 160, 302 S.E.2d 841
