Terms Used In North Carolina General Statutes Rule 21
- Dismissal: The dropping of a case by the judge without further consideration or hearing. Source:
Neither misjoinder of parties nor misjoinder of parties and claims is ground for dismissal of an action; but on such terms as are just parties may be dropped or added by order of the court on motion of any party or on its own initiative at any stage of the action. Any claim against a party may be severed and proceeded with separately. (1967, c. 954, s. 1.)
