WLAE, LLC v. Edwards

Court of Appeals of North Carolina

Decided December 19, 2017No. COA17-154PublishedCited by 5 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

ELMORE, Judge.

Plaintiff WLAE, LLC, appeals from two dismissal orders, one each of which was entered in favor of defendants Robert L. Edwards and Wolf Arbin Weinhold, and both of which were entered pursuant to Rule 12(b)(1) of the North Carolina Rules of Civil Procedure. Because plaintiff lacked standing at the time its complaint was filed, the trial court correctly determined that it did not have subject matter jurisdiction over the proceeding. Accordingly, we affirm the dismissal orders of the trial court.
