The opinion
PeR Cueiam.
Defendant makes twenty-one assignments of error and brings forward and discusses eleven of these in his brief. It is noted that none of the assignments relied on, except that relating to nonsuit, complies with Rules 19(3) and 21 of the rules of practice in the Supreme Court. 254 N.C. 797 , 803. See Brown v. Brown, 264 N.C. 485 , 141 S.E. 2d 875 . However, we have carefully examined and considered each of them.
Defendant seems to stress, somewhat more than his others, the contention that the court erred in admitting, over his objection, testimony by plaintiff and one of plaintiff’s witnesses that defendant offered to give a series of notes in discharge of the debt in question. Defendant contends this testimony relates to an unaccepted offer of compromise and was incompetent. Plaintiff and his witness testified that defendant did not deny, but acknowledged, the debt in its entirety, and offered to pay it in full by giving a series of promissory notes of $1000 each, payable in successive years, and that plaintiff declined to defer payment as thus suggested. Defendant testified that no such offer was made. In our opinion the testimony in question does not constitute an offer of compromise. “. . . negotiations alleged to constitute all or any part of an unsuccessful compromise treaty may be admitted as admissions of liability where it appears that they proceeded on the tacit assumption that the entire amount claimed was actually due, or where there was no denial, express or implied, of liability and the only questions discussed were the amount to be paid, the terms, time or method of payment, or whether the declarant should be given some incidental advantage in consideration of payment.” 31A C.J.S., Evidence, § 285, pp. 730, 731. See also Tapp v. Dibrell, 134 N.C. 546 , 47 S.E. 51 .
Plaintiff’s evidence is sufficient to withstand nonsuit. The evidence of plaintiff and defendant is in sharp conflict. The jury has resolved *718 the.matter in favor' of plaintiff. Nothing has been presented which justifies a revérsal of the judgment or a new trial.
No error.
