Parties | DANE v. DANIEL et al. |
Appeal from superior court, Spokane county; Leander H. Prather Judge.
Action by Zerviah B. Dane against Melissa K. Daniel and another for an accounting as to certain mortgage premises, and, in default of payment, that defendants be barred of all right of redemption. From a judgment in favor of complainant defendants appeal. Reversed.
R. L. Edmiston and A. E. Gallaher, for appellants.
Domer & Estep and Happy, Hindman & Langford, for respondent.
The respondent, in her complaint, alleged: That on November 15 1890, George E. Spoor and Bella H. Spoor, his wife, being then the owners of certain real property situated in the county of Spokane, mortgaged the same to the Lombard Investment Company to secure the payment of their certain joint and several negotiable real estate first mortgage coupon bond for the sum of $5,000 and interest, given by them to evidence a loan made to them on that day by the Lombard Investment Company; that on the 29th day of November, 1890, the said Lombard Investment Company sold the bond and assigned the mortgage to the respondent; that Spoor and wife defaulted in the payment of the principal and interest due on the bond, and that on the 28th day of April, 1897, the respondent began a suit in the superior court of Spokane county to foreclose the mortgage, making parties defendant, among others, one P. M. Daniel and one Lelia A. Dyer; that such proceedings were had in such foreclosure suit as to result in a foreclosure of the mortgage and the sale of the mortgaged premises to the plaintiff, which sale was afterwards in all respects duly confirmed by the court. The complaint then continues as follows: The appellants appeared separately, and demurred to the complaint on the ground that it did not state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of action. On their demurrers being overruled, they answered separately. The answers were, in substance, the same, and admitted the execution of the mortgage, the proceedings taken to foreclose the same, and that P. M. Daniel and Lelia A. Dyer were grantees of the Spoors. They denied there was anything due or owing on the mortgage, the allegation of want of knowledge on the part of respondent of their interest in the property, and all of the allegations contained in paragraphs 9 and 11 of the complaint. They then pleaded affirmatively the foreclosure proceedings had by respondent, averring that the mortgage indebtedness was satisfied thereby, and that such satisfaction was entered by respondent on the records of the court. Further answering, they alleged that Melissa K. Daniel was the wife of P. M. Daniel, and that E. J. Dyer was the husband of Lelia A. Dyer; that all that part of the mortgaged property conveyed by the Spoors to P. M. Daniel became and now is the community property of himself and wife; that all that part of the property conveyed by the Spoors to Lelia A. Dyer became and now is the community property of herself and husband,--all of which was well known to the respondent and her attorney at the time the foreclosure proceedings were had. The court sustained a general demurrer to the new matter contained in the answers, and thereafter a trial was had on the issues made by the denials to the allegations of the complaint.
The evidence introduced at the trial was very meager. Two witnesses testified as to the marketable and rental value of the mortgage premises, and the attorney for respondent as to the reason why the appellants were not made parties to the original foreclosure suit. His testimony we quote in full Cross-examination: One witness was sworn on the part of the...
