Court | Missouri Court of Appeals |
Appeal from St. Louis Circuit Court; Moses N. Sale, Judge.
Action by Leon Kahn against the Mercantile Town Mutual Insurance Company. Judgment for plaintiff, and defendant appealed to this court, whence it was transferred to the Supreme Court, which transferred the appeal back (128 S. W. 995). Affirmed.
Barclay, Shields & Fauntleroy, for appellant. Lee W. Grant and P. B. Kennedy, for respondent.
This case was brought on appeal to this court from the circuit court of the city of St. Louis; the certified copy of the judgment rendered and the order allowing the appeal being filed in this court May 5, 1906. It was submitted on briefs October 3, 1906, and on the 5th of February, 1907, the judgment of the circuit court was affirmed; the opinion of this court being written by the then presiding judge, the Honorable Charles C. Bland, in which all the court concurred. Afterwards, on motion made to transfer the case to the Supreme Court on the ground stated, among others, that it involved the construction of the Constitution of the United States and was not a cause within the appellate jurisdiction of this court, the judgment of affirmance theretofore rendered by this court was set aside and the cause transferred to the Supreme Court. In due course the cause came on to be heard in that court. On the 31st of May, 1910, an order was entered by the Supreme Court, transferring the cause back to this court; the Supreme Court reaching the conclusion that no federal questions had been raised in the circuit court and preserved so as to present a question conferring jurisdiction upon that court, all the judges of division No. 1 concurring in that conclusion, which was announced by Judge Woodson, and Judges Valliant, Lamm, and Graves concurring on grounds differing from that announced by Judge Woodson. See 128 S. W. 995. As this court in transferring the case to the Supreme Court did so solely on the question of jurisdiction, and not from any doubt as to the correctness of the conclusion reached by it on the merits, and as the question of jurisdiction is now settled by the Supreme Court, counsel having submitted the case on the briefs heretofore filed, it is only necessary, in disposing of the case, to adopt the opinion heretofore handed down by Judge Bland, which, with the statement made by him, is as follows:
