Silverman v. Caddo Gas & Oil Co.
Supreme Court of Louisiana
Appeal from the First Judicial District Court, Parish of Caddo; A. J. Murff, Judge. Action by Randall Silverman against the Caddo Gas & Oil Company. Judgment for defendant, and plaintiff appeals.
1Opinion of the CourtLand, J.
This is a suit to recover damages for an alleged breach of a contract to deliver 100,000 barrels of oil. Defendant, after pleading the general issue, averred that the plaintiff had not complied with the contract on his part, had admitted his inability to handle the oil, and was thereupon released from the contract. For further answer defendant pleaded in the alternative, that, if said contract was not abrogated or abandoned, the plaintiff himself was in default for not paying the sum of $858.20 for oil delivered, and, therefore could not put defendant in default, nor demand further shipments.
