Benewah Creek Improvement Land & Logging Co. v. Milwaukee Lumber Co.

253 P. 625, 43 Idaho 529, 1927 Ida. LEXIS 194

• Court: Idaho Supreme Court
• Decided: February 7, 1927
• Status: Published

Opinion

T. BAILEY LEE, J.

Upon a former appeal this cause was, on December 30, 1925, reversed and remanded, with direction to the trial court to enter judgment in accordance with the views expressed in the opinion. (Benewah Creek etc. Co. v. Milwaukee Lbr. Co., 41 Ida. 783, 242 Pac. 793.)

On September 28, 1926, final decree and order for mandatory injunction in favor of respondent were made and entered. Defendants thereafter took separate appeals. Respondent has moved to dismiss the same upon the ground that an appeal cannot lie from a judgment entered in conformity with the directions of the appellate court.

The appellant, Milwaukee Lumber Company, contends that the judgment and order appealed from failed in divers respects to conform to the court’s mandate. We have carefully examined our former opinion, together with the decree, order and contract involved, and are of the opinion that the contention is not sustained.

Appellant, Fred Herrick, complains that the decree and order by their terms impose upon him certain unwarranted personal and individual liabilities, since he is no party to the contract and has no interest in the eodefendant company, his principal, other than that of president and manager. We think his position correct.

The appeal of the Milwaukee Lumber Company is dismissed, and as to the appellant, Herrick, the cause is remanded to the lower court, with direction to amend its decree and order in consonance with the memorandum attached hereto. Costs to respondent.

Wm. E. Lee, C. J., and Budge, Givens and Taylor, JJ., concur.
