Supreme Court of North Carolina September 21, 1949 (State v. Clement)

Stacy, C. J.

Perhaps the case would be controlled by the decision in

S. v. Hiatt

(1937), 211 N.C. 116, 189 S.E. 124, where an attempted appeal from a similar verdict was dismissed, but for the 1947 amendment to the statute which specifically allows an appeal “from a finding of the issue of paternity against the defendant.” Chap. 1014, Session Laws 1947; G-.S. 49-7.
