In this appeal from a condemnation order, defendants present two issues: (I) Did the trial court err by concluding that defendants failed to establish a claim of adverse possession to a tract adjoining their condemned property?; and (II) Did the trial court err by failing to classify the going concern value and/or goodwill of defendants’ business as property taken or damaged by the Department of Transportation? We hold that the trial court’s mixed findings of fact and conclusion of law fail to provide an adequate basis for the review of whether there was sufficient evidence to establish a claim of adverse possession. Accordingly, we remand this case for adequate findings of fact and conclusions of law in which to assess defendants’ adverse possession claim; and, we dismiss defendants’ second issue as interlocutory.
The underlying facts of this matter tend to show that in 1998, the North Carolina Department of Transportation (DOT) commenced condemnation proceedings against defendants’ property and building for construction of the Greensboro Urban Loop. DOT estimated just compensation as $1,817,850, whereas defendants estimated the amount to be more than $5,000,000. Defendants contend the property was uniquely well-suited for their family antique business and that there were not any other suitable locations for relocation. Therefore, defendants argued lost profits and the damage to the going concern value and/or goodwill of the business should be included in the just compensation figure. The trial court rejected their argument.
Defendants also claimed ownership of an adjoining tract of land condemned by DOT. In 1958, defendants’ predecessors in interest relocated their antique business to land near 1-85. In 1975, defendants began using an adjacent 0.4 acre tract for additional parking and continued this use until the property was condemned in 1999. In addition to defendants’ gravel parking lot, a billboard was located on the land which was used by another entity for the entire period the defendants used the land for a parking lot. During the condemnation proceed*456ings, defendants claimed they owned the adjacent tract by adverse possession. However, the trial court found that defendants use of the 0.4 acre tract had been neither exclusive nor hostile and, therefore, rejected defendants’ claim of title by adverse possession. Defendants appeal.
Initially, we address, sua sponte, the interlocutory nature of defendants’ North Carolina constitutional argument that the state is required to compensate them for damage to their business. Pursuant to N.C. Gen. Stat. § 136-108, upon motion, the trial court in a condemnation proceeding is to “hear and determine any and all issues raised by the pleadings other than the issue of damages . . .,” with the damages issue to be determined later in a jury trial. Because G.S. 136-108 hearings do not finally resolve all issues, an appeal from a trial court’s order rendered in such hearings is interlocutory.
N.C. Gen. Stat. § 136-119 provides that “either party shall have a right to appeal to the Supreme Court for errors of law committed in any proceedings provided for in this Article in the same manner as in any other civil actions.” Defendants contend this Court should grant an interlocutory appeal because they have a substantial right in avoiding the possibility of two trials on the issue of just compensation, which would be the result if the Court dismisses this appeal and they are forced to appeal the business damages issue after final resolution of just compensation in the trial court. We disagree.
“Ordinarily the possibility of undergoing a second trial affects a substantial right only when the same issues are present in both trials, creating the possibility that a party will be prejudiced by different juries in separate trials rendering inconsistent verdicts on the same factual issue.” Turner v. Norfolk Southern Corp., 137 N.C. App. 138, 142, 526 S.E.2d 666 (2000). Defendants are not faced with this situation.
In this case, the trial court found defendants were not entitled to recover for business damages under the law as interpreted by the Supreme Court of North Carolina. Defendants’ argument on appeal is aimed at persuading this Court to change the law such that business damages would be recoverable. Only if defendants are successful in their appeal would they be able to recover business damages.
Defendants are not faced with the possibility of inconsistent verdicts. In this case, one jury will hear evidence to determine just compensation in accordance with the law as it now stands. After final *457judgment is rendered, if defendants are successful in their appeal, a jury will hear completely different evidence regarding business damages and will determine just compensation based upon that evidence only. Accordingly, we find defendants’ arguments regarding the inclusion of business damages in a just compensation award is interlocutory.
Next, we address defendants’ concerns regarding the trial court’s finding that they do not own an adjoining tract of land via adverse possession. Initially we note defendants’ claim of ownership of the 0.4 acre triangular tract via adverse possession may be addressed in a N.C. Gen. Stat. § 136-108 condemnation hearing.1 See Department of Transportation v. Wolfe, 116 N.C. App. 655, 449 S.E.2d 11, 12 (1994). In hearings pursuant to N.C. Gen. Stat. § 136-108, the trial court, after resolving any motions and preliminary matters, conducts a bench trial on the disputed issues except for damages. See Taylor v. North Carolina Department of Transportation, 86 N.C. App. 299, 302, 357 S.E.2d 439, 440 (1987) (parties conceded the trial court properly conducted a non-jury 136-108 hearing); Ramsey v. Department of Transportation and Highway Safety, 67 N.C. App. 716, 313 S.E.2d 909 (1984) (discussing why the trial judge, sitting as a jury, properly denied defendant’s motion to dismiss at the close of all evidence). Accordingly, the trial judge must make adequate findings of fact which support the conclusions of law. See N.C. Gen. Stat. § 1A-1, Rule 52(a)(1) (2001).
In this case, the trial court’s order contained only one mixed finding of fact and conclusion of law regarding defendants’ adverse possession claim:
That Joe Byerly’s parents began using part of the .401 acre triangular tract between Wiley Davis Road, the right-of-way line of Interstate 85, and the Byerly property in 1975 for additional parking for their business, Byerly Antiques. Around 1980 Joe Byerly began landscaping efforts in part of the tract and placed gravel in the parking area. For almost all of the time since at least 1980, there has been a large billboard on the property facing 1-85. The billboard is not owned by the Byerlys and has been maintained *458and used by others without permission from the Byerlys. The Defendants have failed to establish adverse possession to the disputed .401 acreage area shown on the Court plat. The Byerlys have not shown exclusive and hostile possession of a tract with known and visible boundaries for the necessary time period and do not own the .401 acre tract by adverse possession.
N.C. Gen. Stat. § 1A-1, Rule 52(a)(1) (2001) provides “in all actions tried upon the facts without a jury or with an advisory jury, the court shall find the facts specially and state separately its conclusions of law thereon and direct the entry of the appropriate judgment.” On appeal, this Court’s task in reviewing the decision in a non-jury trial is to determine “whether there was competent evidence to support the trial court’s findings of fact and whether its conclusions of law were proper in light of such facts.” Pineda-Lopez v. North Carolina Growers Association, Inc., 151 N.C. App. 587, 589, 566 S.E.2d 162, 164 (2002).
In this case, the trial court issued one mixed finding of fact and conclusion of law regarding defendant’s adverse possession claim, which not only fails to comply with Rule 52(a)(1), but also forms an inadequate basis for this Court to conduct a review and assess appellant’s contentions.2 Accordingly, we remand this case to the trial court for additional and adequate findings of fact and conclusions of law, compliant with Rule 52(a)(1).
Remanded in part; dismissed in part.
Judge McGEE concurs. Judge GREENE dissents.. N.C. Gen. Stat. § 136-108 states “[a]fter the filing of the plat, the judge, upon motion and 10 days notice by either the Department of Transportation or the owner, shall, either in or out of term, hear and determine any and all issues raised by the pleadings other than the issue of damages, including, but not limited to, if controverted, questions of necessary and proper parties, title to the land, interest taken, and area taken.”
. The dissent acknowledges the trial court’s findings and conclusion are commingled; but yet, finds they are clear enough for meaningful judicial review. The dissent, however, fails to address the mandate of N.C. Gen. Stat. § 1A-1, Rule 52(a)(1) requiring the court to “find the facts specially and state separately its conclusions of law thereon . . .”
