| Court | United States State Supreme Court of Kansas |
| Citation | 52 Kan. 133,34 P. 395 |
| Parties | GEORGE W. HOWELL et al. v. THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF WASHINGTON |
| Decision Date | 07 October 1893 |
Error form Washington District Court.
THE opinion states the nature of the action and the material facts.
Judgment reversed.
Mills, Smith & Hobbs, for plaintiffs in error.
Chas. Smith, and J. G. Lowe, for defendant in error.
OPINION
Plaintiffs in error were joined with many others as defendants in an action brought by the defendant in error, to enforce their statutory liability as stockholders in an insolvent corporation. They demurred to the petition, on the ground that several causes of action were improperly joined. The demurrer was overruled, and, the defendants electing to stand thereon, judgment was entered against each of them for different amounts.
The identical question presented in this case was fully considered by this court in the case of Abbey v. Dry Goods Co., 44 Kan. 415, 24 P. 426. With the decision in that case we are entirely satisfied.
Judgment reversed.
All the Justices concurring.
