Court | Indiana Appellate Court |
Parties | GAAR, SCOTT & COMPANY v. ROSE ET AL |
From the Allen Superior Court.
Judgment affirmed, with costs.
J. B Harper, for appellant.
H Colerick and W. S. Oppenheim, for appellees.
This was an action by the appellant to recover of the appellees the price of a clover huller, alleged to have been sold and delivered by the former to the latter.
A written order for the machine was given by the appellees, as follows:
(Signed) "C. ROSE.
"H. D. ROSE."
It is alleged in the first paragraph of the complaint, of which said order is made a part, that the appellant, after the receipt of said order, to wit, on the 27th of October, 1888, delivered the machine therein ordered to the appellees, and that the same was by them accepted; that the appellant has fully performed its part of said contract, but that the appellees have wholly failed and refused to deliver to the appellant said Birdsell Huller, and to execute said notes and mortgage. Wherefore judgment is asked for $ 500.
The complaint is in two paragraphs, but they are not essentially different.
The appellees answered in four paragraphs, the first of which was a general denial. The paragraph of general denial was withdrawn before trial.
Demurrers filed to the second, third and fourth paragraphs of the answer were sustained as to the second and fourth, and overruled as to the third.
The third paragraph of the answer is as follows:
To this paragraph of answer a reply containing three paragraphs was filed, the first of which was a general denial. The substance of the second paragraph of the reply is, that the defendants should be estopped from setting up the alleged breach of warranty, for the reason that at the time of the purchase of said machine the defendants, in their order therefor, agreed that if said machine was delivered to them by any agent of the plaintiff, or received by defendants or their representative before full and complete settlement had been made according to the terms of said order, all equities and claims under the warranty therein made should thereby be waived.
The substance of the third paragraph of the reply is, that the defendants continued in the possession and use of the machine ordered, more than one week after starting the same, without giving notice to the manufacturers and their agent that the machine did not do as recommended.
Upon the issues thus formed the cause was submitted to a jury for trial, who, with answers to interrogatories submitted to them by the court upon the appellant's motion, returned a general verdict for the appellees.
The appellant moved the court for judgment upon the answers made by the jury to the interrogatories, which motion was overruled, as also a motion by the appellant for a new trial, and judgment was then rendered upon the general verdict for the appellees for costs.
The appellant has assigned as error the overruling of the demurrer to the third paragraph of the answer, the overruling of its motion for judgment upon the answers by the jury to interrogatories, and the overruling of the motion for a new trial.
The only alleged errors directly discussed, however, by the appellant's counsel are the overruling of the appellant's motion for judgment upon the answers of the jury to the interrogatories and the overruling of the motion for a new trial.
The interrogatories and answers thereto are as follows:
