[U] Noblot v. Timmons

An unpublished opinion of the North Carolina Court of Appeals does not constitute controlling legal authority. Citation is disfavored, but may be permitted in accordance with the provisions of Rule 30(e)(3) of the North Carolina Rules of Appellate Procedure. On 21 February 2003, plaintiffs Thomas L. and Deborah J. Noblot brought this action against defendants Richard P. McNeely, trustee, the Federal National Mortgage Association, Ricky D. Timmons, Teresa Lynn Timmons, and Julie M. Hance seeking an accounting from defendant Julie M. Hance, trustee, of funds deposited with her, and judgment against her for any funds wrongfully dispersed. Plaintiffs were later allowed to amend their complaint to add L. Keith Hance, and Hance and Hance, P.A., asdefendants and asserting additional claims against Julie and Keith Hance, and Hance and Hance, P.A., (collectively ""the Hance defendants""). On 4 August 2004, the Hance defendants moved for summary judgment, and on 26 August 2004, the court granted the Hance defendants' motion for summary judgment and dismissed all claims against them. Plaintiffs appeal, and for the reasons discussed below, we dismiss this appeal as interlocutory.
