Bates v. Mullins

The plaintiff, as receiver of the Redfield Savings Bank of Redfield, Iowa, commenced this action against the defendant, George Mullins, and codefendant, William H. Morrison, to quiet title to a large tract of land in Dallas County, Iowa. In his answer and counterclaim, the defendant Mullins claims to be the owner of said land, and asks that the title therein be quieted in him. The intervenor Morrison alleges that he has purchased the land in question under a contract from defendant Mullins, and asks that his rights be protected.
