EVINS, MARGARET EARLY, MARY PRESSLEY, SIDNEY McCARTY, III, MILDRED JOHNSON, JOHN HENRY CHEATHAM, TRUSTEE OF THE LIELA BARNES CHEATHAM NORTH CAROLINA RESIDENCE TRUST v. TOWN OF HIGHLANDS, A MUNICIPAL CORPORATION. MICHAEL WENTZ

Eminent Domain — condemnation by town — owners' right to pursue injunctive relief

The decision by the Court of Appeals that plaintiff landowners had no right to institute an action for injunctive relief to prohibit defendant town from proceeding with the condemnation of their property because plaintiffs had an adequate remedy at law through the condemnation proceeding is reversed for the reason stated in the dissenting opinion that the legislature, in revising the eminent domain statutes by N.C.G.S. Ch. 40A, intended to preserve the rights of all parties to pursue injunctive relief.

PER CURIAM.

For the reasons stated in the dissenting opinion, the decision of the Court of Appeals is reversed and this case is remanded to that court for further remand to the Superior Court, Macon County, for proceedings not inconsistent with the dissenting opinion.

REVERSED AND REMANDED.

Justice MARTIN did not participate in the consideration or decision of this case.
