Martin v. Baines

119 So. 861, 218 Ala. 656, 1929 Ala. LEXIS 24

Opinion

SAYRE, J.

The bill as amended since the first appeal in this cause (Martin v. Baines, 217 Ala. 326, 116 So. 341), as before, falls to pray for process against appellant, who in the stating part of the bill is more than once referred to as “respondent”; but we think this defect in the bill should not avail anything at' this time, for the reason that appellant not only demurred to the bill but answered the averment of facts before offering to take advantage of the point. Jackson v. Putman, 180 Ala. 39, 60 So. 61.

In our opinion on the first appeal, the bill was held to be defective for reasons pointed out on page 330 of 217 Ala. (116 So. 341). These defects were cured on renvandment of the cause. Other objections now taken against the bill were considered on the first appeal. 217 Ala. 326, 116 So. 341. The court is satisfied with the conclusions stated on that appeal.

Affirmed.

ANDERSON, C. J., and THOMAS and BROWN, JJ., concur.
