Court | Oregon Supreme Court |
Department 1.
Appeal from Circuit Court, Jefferson County; T. E. J. Duffy, Judge.
On petition for rehearing.
For former opinion, see 296 P. 51.
M. R. Elliott, of Prineville, for appellant.
Coan & Roseuberg, of Portland, and Bernard Ramsey, of Bend, for respondent.
Plaintiff, by her petition for rehearing, asserts that the court erred in holding that defendant demurred to the complaint upon the ground that the action was not brought within the time limited by the Code, and hence that, since that defense is waived, unless taken advantage of by demurrer or answer, it was not available as a defense in the suit.
It appears from the transcript containing the original pleadings in the action, which was certified to under the hand of the county clerk and seal of the circuit court for Jefferson county, filed in this court on August 4, 1930, that the demurrer filed by defendant, omitting the title of the court and cause, was in the following words:
It is evident from the reading of this demurrer, whether imperfectly drawn or not, that the defendant intended to demur upon both grounds, and that the court, in overruling it, not only had its attention drawn to both grounds of demurrer, but also overruled it upon both grounds.
Petition for rehearing therefore must be denied.
