Northwest Thresher Co. v. Dietlein
Supreme Court of Minnesota
Action in the district court for Otter Tail county to recover $402.75 for the breach of contract to purchase certain machinery. The case was tried before Baxter J., who at the close of plaintiff’s testimony dismissed the action. From an order denying a motion for a new trial, plaintiff appealed.
1Per curiam
The identical question presented in this case was involved in the case of J. I. Case Threshing Machine Co. v. Fronk, supra, page 39, 117 N. W. 229, and was there decided adversely to appellant’s contention. We follow and apply the decision there made.
The additional point made in this ease, to the effect that the court below erred in not making findings of fact, is not well taken. It is unnecessary to make findings where an action is dismissed after trial on the merits, if, on the most favorable view of the evidence, no recovery can be had by plaintiff.
Order affirmed.
