Sullivan v. Graham

Plaintiff, a residential builder living in Michigan, brought this action at law to recover the balance due him from defendant for labor and materials furnished defendant under a contract for the alteration of defendant’s dwelling house in Grosse Pointe, in Wayne county. The court granted defendant’s motion to dismiss because the declaration did not allege that plaintiff had a residential builder’s license, which allegation is required by section 19 of the act hereinafter referred to. Plaintiff appeals.

Involved in this appeal is the validity of PA 1939, No 311, as amended by PA 1945, No 315.…
