1Opinion of the Court

Magney, Justice.

Plaintiffs, Donald Prince and Gordon Jensen, and defendant Earl N. Sonnesyn were members of a partnership at will known as the Prince Manufacturing Company. Each had a one-third interest. On June 12, 1944, a corporation by the same name was organized to succeed to the partnership. Sonnesyn acquired a controlling interest in the corporation. Plaintiffs, claiming that Sonnesyn fraudulently induced them to agree to incorporate and fraudulently acquired a controlling interest, brought action. They prevailed, and Sonnesyn appeals from an order denying his motion for a new trial.
