Citation | 52 P.2d 1181,46 Ariz. 511 |
Decision Date | 23 December 1935 |
Docket Number | Civil 3603 |
Parties | AMERICAN COARSE GOLD CORPORATION, a Corporation, Appellant, v. LAWRENCE YOUNG, Appellee |
Court | Arizona Supreme Court |
APPEAL from a judgment of the Superior Court of the County of Yuma. C. C. Faires, Judge. Judgment reversed and case remanded for new trial.
Mr. J Fred Hoover, for Appellant.
Mr. A J. Eddy and Mr. Bernard T. Caine, for Appellee.
This is an appeal from a judgment in favor of Lawrence Young, hereinafter called plaintiff, against American Coarse Gold Corporation, a corporation, hereinafter called defendant, for the sum of $983.64, and for the foreclosure of a mechanic's lien on certain property owned by defendant, in satisfaction of the judgment debt aforesaid. The assignments of error are as follows:
These assignments are insufficient to raise any question for our consideration except that the decision is contrary to the evidence. Williams v. Williams, 37 Ariz. 176, 291 P. 993; Thornburg v. Frye, 44 Ariz. 282, 36 P.2d 548.We therefore confine our opinion to the assignment.
Upon an examination of the transcript, it appears there is ample evidence to support the judgment for debt as against defendant. When, however, it comes to the foreclosure of the mechanic's lien, the situation is very different. The requisites for a mechanic's lien of the nature which plaintiff seeks to enforce in this action are found in section 2021, Revised Code 1928, which reads as follows:
It is of course, necessary for the plaintiff to allege his compliance with the essential requirements of the statute and, if such compliance is denied, to prove it upon the trial by competent evidence. Among these essentials are the filing of the notice with the county recorder and the service of a "duplicate" copy of such notice upon the owner, if found within the county. Section 2021, supra; Steinfeld & Co. v. Allison Min. Co., 41 Ariz. 340, 18 P.2d 267. It will be noted that the statute...
