In January, 1979 defendant deeded approximately 480 acres of Beaufort County land to plaintiff. Based upon allegations that the boundaries of the tract are not as defendant’s agent represented them to be plaintiff seeks to rescind or reform the deed on the grounds of fraud or mistake; not mutual mistake, though, but his unilateral mistake caused or known about by the seller, as laid down in this case when it was here before. Howell v. Waters, 82 N.C. App. 481, 347 S.E. 2d 65 (1986), disc. rev. denied, 318 N.C. 694, 351 S.E. 2d 747 (1987); Restatement (Second) of Contracts Sec. 153 (1981). Upon the case being retried after the first appeal the jury rendered verdict against plaintiff and judgment was entered thereon.
In appealing plaintiff makes only one contention — that the court committed reversible error in failing to submit “issues on fraud to the jury” as he requested. Assuming arguendo that it was error not to submit plaintiffs requested fraud issues plaintiff could not have been prejudiced thereby because the jury’s an*722swers to the issues that were submitted establish that plaintiffs fraud claim has no basis. For in answering the issues the jury found, inter alia, that (1) defendant neither knew of nor caused plaintiff s mistaken belief as to the tract boundaries; and (2) plaintiffs reliance upon the agent’s representations was not reasonable. These findings were fatal to plaintiffs fraud claim for reasons that the law of that subject make self-evident. See Lamm v. Crumpler, 240 N.C. 35, 81 S.E. 2d 138 (1954); 37 C.J.S. Fraud Sec. 3 (1943). Since the issues submitted were comprehensive enough to resolve the fraud claim additional issues on that claim were not required. Johnson v. Lamb, 273 N.C. 701, 161 S.E. 2d 131 (1968).
No error.
Chief Judge HEDRICK and Judge EAGLES concur.
