Citation | 65 N.E. 4,159 Ind. 372 |
Parties | Kreuter et al. v. The English Lake Land Company et al |
Court | Indiana Supreme Court |
From Starke Circuit Court; G. W. Beeman, Judge.
Action by Hugh E. Kreuter and others against the English Lake Land Company and others. From a judgment for defendants plaintiffs appeal.
Appeal dismissed.
T. E Howard, J. M. Fuller and H. R. Robbins, for appellants.
J. F Hanly and W. R. Wood, for appellees.
Appellant filed a supplemental petition under § 5629 Burns 1901, § 4279 Horner 1901, to what was known as the Place ditch proceeding, making the English Lake Land Company and George Schoonover and forty-two other persons parties thereto. Notice of said supplemental petition was given to the nonresident landowners by posting, and to the resident landowners by copy or reading, as required by § 5624 Burns 1901, § 4274 Horner 1901. Afterwards said supplemental petition was dismissed by the court as an entirety on the motion of the English Lake Land Company, and a final judgment was rendered against appellants.
It is insisted that "this court has no jurisdiction to determine this appeal on its merits because all the parties brought into court by said supplemental petition, forty-four in number, have not been made appellees on this appeal and served with notice." It is true that only two of said parties, the English Lake Land Company and George Schoonover, have been made appellees in this court. The court dismissed said supplemental petition as to all the forty-four parties named therein as parties adverse to appellants. The other coparties with the English Lake Land Company and George Schoonover in the court below were adverse parties to appellants, the same as the said appellees, the English Lake Land Company and Schoonover, and should have been made co-appellees with them in this court, and served with notice of the appeal.
