Parties | FLEMING v. McCALL et al. |
Court | Missouri Court of Appeals |
Appeal from Circuit Court, Barry County; Emory E. Smith, Judge.
"Not to be officially published."
Action by Mrs. W. J. Fleming against Marcus M. McCall, Estella Kemp, and D. H. Kemp. Judgment for plaintiff, and defendants, except defendant first named, appeal.
Affirmed.
Barrett & Kemp, of Springfield, for appellants.
L. W. Eubanks, of Monett, for respondent.
This action was commenced in the circuit court of Barry county based upon a petition, with promissory note attached, wherein the plaintiff sought judgment upon said note for the amount of the principal and interest as provided in the note, less $10 theretofore paid on the interest, and for 10 per cent. of the amount due as attorney fee as provided in the note.
Service was had upon all the defendants, returnable to the March term, 1929, and at that time defendants Estella Kemp and D. H. Kemp filed an answer, pleading a release as to them because upon the payment of $10 the plaintiff had extended the time of payment of said note for one year without the knowledge or consent of them, who were accommodational indorsers and sureties upon said note. We deem it unnecessary to set out the pleadings in full.
Marcus M. McCall filed no answer, but made default, and at that time a default judgment was rendered against him for the amount of principal, interest, and attorney fee, as provided in the note, and the cause was continued as to Estella Kemp and D. H. Kemp to the next term of court.
At the June term, 1929, on the 1st day of July, defendants Estella Kemp and D. H. Kemp, limiting their appearance to the attacking of the jurisdiction of the court, filed their motion to strike said cause from the docket. On the 2d day of July, the plaintiff filed her motion to set aside her judgment against Marcus M. McCall.
At the same term of court, on July 5, the motion of the Kemps to strike said cause from the docket was by the court overruled, and on July 6, at the same term of court, the motion to set aside the judgment against Marcus M. McCall was sustained, and on the same day judgment was again rendered by default against Marcus M. McCall, and the judgment was also against the Kemps. The part of the judgment referring to the Kemps is as follows:
On the same date of the judgment, July 6, 1929, the defendants Estella Kemp and D. H. Kemp filed their motion for new trial and motion in arrest of judgment, which were by the court overruled, and they appealed.
We do not set out the motion for new trial because the appellants claim there is but one question here, and that is as set out in their statement, which is as follows: ...
