Appeals by defendants Louis P. Crevier and C. C. Bennett from a judgment of the district court for Hennepin county, entered upon default, and from an order by Loehren, J., refusing to set aside the service of the summons. The sheriff’s return of service shows that the summons was served personally on defendant Bennett, and was served upon defendant Crevier by leaving a copy thereof “at the house of his usual place of abode with a person of suitable age and discretion then residing therein.”
1Opinion of the Court
Dickinson, J.1
The summons in this action having been delivered to the sheriff for service, that officer made return showing service upon the defendants Crevier and Bennett. More than 20 days thereafter the defendants mentioned, who had not made any appearance in the action, applied to the court to be permitted to defend. The application was supported by affidavits alleging that the summons had not been served. The motion was denied, and the defendants appealed. An appeal was also taken from the judgment, to review alleged errors in it.
