Supreme Court of Kansas
Error from Greenwood District Court This case was here before, and the petition in error ivas then dismissed for want of necessary parties. (11 Kas., 357.) It is now here on its merits, the necessary parties being before the court. Billson & Jones, as partners, recovered a judgment against Hodgson at the June Term 1872 of the district court for $100.87, and costs, and Hodgson brings the case here for review. The facts are fully stated in the opinion.
1Opinion of the Court
The opinion of the court was delivered by
Valentine, J.:
This was an action brought by Billson & Jones against Hodgson and wife, and one John W. Berry to foreclose a mechanic’s lien. No service was ever obtained upon said Berry, and the case was dismissed as to Mrs. Hodgson. The trial then proceeded before the court, without a jury, against Hodgson alone. The court found that there was no mechanic’s lien, but rendered a personal judgment against Hodgson and in favor of Billson & J ones for the amount that they claimed. Hodgson claims that this judgment was erroneous.
