This is an action brought by plaintiff to restrain defendants from selling certain real estate. The temporary restraining order was dissolved and plaintiff assigned error and appealed to the Supreme Court. It has long been the settled rule in this jurisdiction that this Court on appeal in injunction suits has the power to find and review the findings of fact in controversies of this kind. On the record it appears that as to material facts there is a serious conflict. The rule is to the effect that if plaintiff has shown probable cause or a prima facie case, or it can reasonably be seen that he will be able to make out his case at the final hearing, the injunction will be continued. It is also settled that the burden is on appellant to show error. Wentz v. Land Co., 193 N.C. 32;Realty Co. v. Barnes, 197 N.C. 6.
In Ohio Oil Co. v. Conway, supervisor, 279 U.S. at p. 815, speaking to the subject, we find: "Where the questions presented by an application for an interlocutory injunction are grave, and the injury to the moving party will be certain and irreparable if the application be denied and the final decree be in his favor, while if the injunction be granted the injury to the opposing party, even if the final decree be in his favor, will be inconsiderable, or may be adequately indemnified by a bond, the injunction usually will be granted. Love v. Atchison, T. S. F. R. Co., 107 C.C.A., 403, 185 Fed., 321, 331, 332." In the judgment of the court below, there is
Error.
