Whaley Bros. v. Stevens

This is a notice of motion brought by F. L. Stevens, hereinafter called plaintiff, against E. T. Whaley and J. W. Whaley, partners trading as Whaley Brothers, who will, for convenience, be designated as defendants.

Plaintiff sought to recover $480, evidenced by six negotiable notes, all of date August 21, 1927. He claims to be “a holder in due course.” The defendants charge that he is not such a holder, and that they were procured by fraud. There was a verdict for them. It was set aside by the trial court; which entered judgment for the plaintiff in the amount claimed.
