No. 8821SC358.

374 S.E.2d 443 (1988)

92 N.C. App. 327

Pete J. LANGLEY, Plaintiff, v. R.J. REYNOLDS TOBACCO COMPANY, Defendant. and GEORGE W. KANE, INC., Defendant and Third-Party Plaintiff, v. HERRING DECORATING, INC., Third-Party Defendant.

Court of Appeals of North Carolina.

December 20, 1988.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

B. Jeffrey Wood, Winston-Salem, for plaintiff, appellant.

Avery, Crosswhite & Whittenton by William E. Crosswhite, Statesville, for third-party defendant, appellant.

Womble Carlyle, Sandridge & Rice by Reid C. Adams, Jr., Winston-Salem, for defendant, appellee R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co.

Petree Stockton & Robinson by Robert J. Lawing and Jane C. Jackson, Winston-Salem, for defendant, appellee George W. Kane, Inc.

HEDRICK, Chief Judge.

Plaintiff argues the trial court erred in granting defendants' motions for summary judgment. We must first determine plaintiff's relationship to defendant Kane, the general contractor, and defendant Reynolds, the owner of the premises. It is well-settled in this state that a contractor and his employees who go upon the premises of the owner, at the owner's request, are invitees. Spivey v. Wilcox Company, 264 N.C. 387
