Ladson F. Howell, of Howell, Barnes, Bowers Gibson, Beaufort, and Richard B. Watson, of Nelson, Mullins, Grier Scarborough, Columbia, for appellants.

ORDER

This matter is currently before the Court on respondent's motion to dismiss the appeal. Appellants appealed from a circuit court order denying their motion for a change of venue.

It is generally held that an order granting or refusing a change of venue is interlocutory and therefore not immediately appealable. See 4 C.J.S. Appeal Error § 115(a) (1957). Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed without prejudice.

This order is to be published with the opinions of this Court.
