1Opinion of the CourtAdams, J.

If a complaint be demurrable for tbe reason that several causes of action have been improperly united tbe causes may be divided into as many actions as are necessary to a determination of tbe controversy; but if there be a misjoinder both of parties and of causes, tbe action may be dismissed. Mitchell v. Mitchell, 96 N. C., 14; Rose v. Warehouse Co., 182 N. C., 107; Shore v. Holt, 185 N. C., 312; C. S., 516. In this case tbe defendants have assigned both grounds of demurrer; we must, therefore, decide whether there is a misjoinder of actions or a misjoinder of parties defendant.
