Court of Appeals of North Carolina October 7, 2003, COA02-1305 (Department of Transportation v. Charlotte Area Manufactured Housing, Inc.)

LEVINSON, Judge.

Defendant appeals from an order partially denying its motion to tax costs against the Department of Transportation (DOT) following a highway condemnation case. We affirm.

I.

On 2 November 1998, DOT brought these two condemnation actions for the acquisition of a new highway right of way over two parcels of the defendant’s land and posted bonds pursuant to N.C.G.S. § 136-103 (2001).
