1Opinion of the Court
ERWIN, Judge.
Plaintiff states the only question for our decision:
“Did the trial court err in granting defendant’s motion to dismiss and in denying the motion of the plaintiff, the duly qualified Virginia administratrix of her daughter’s estate, to amend her pleadings in this wrongful death action to allege her subsequent appointment as ancillary administratrix in North Carolina, and have this amendment relate back to the original institution of this action, so that her claim will not be barred by the statute of limitations?”
We answer, “No,” and affirm the order entered by the trial court.
