Parties | The State ex rel. J. N. Roberts v. Francis H. Trimble et al., Judges of Kansas City Court of Appeals |
Court | Missouri Supreme Court |
Record quashed.
Kitt & Marshall for relator.
(1) The finding made a conclusive case for relator, for money had and received by the bank for his use and benefit, being the cause of action set out in the second count of relator's petition. The judgment of the Court of Appeals should have been for relator. This case is controlled on the facts and law by the case of Johnson-Brinkman Co. v. Bank, 116 Mo. 567. The opinion of the Court of Appeals conflicts therewith. (2) The opinion of the Court of Appeals, holding the bank not liable to relator for money had and received being the basis of the second count of relator's petition, because there was no agreement shown, as alleged in the third count of relator's petition, whereby the bank agreed to pay the checks of Evans, issued on the bank, for stock purchased by Evans, conflicts with and is contrary to the following controlling decisions of this court, which hold that it is not necessary to show a contract or that privity of contract exist in order to maintain a suit for money had and received. Johnson-Brinkman Co. v. Bank, 116 Mo 567; Clifford Banking Co. v. Donovan Comm. Co., 195 Mo. 289; Tamm v. Kellogg, 49 Mo. 120. (3) The sale by relator, of his hogs was a cash sale; the taking of Evans' check was conditional and was not payment unless the check was paid. The title to the hogs did not pass from relator to Evans until paid for, even though the property was delivered. Johnson-Brinkman Co. v. Bank, 116 Mo. 570.
D. E Adams and Reed, Davis & Ashby for respondents.
With the case as it stands before this court, respondent, as did the Court of Appeals, recognizes the law as set forth in the case Johnson-Brinkman v. Central Bank, 116 Mo. 558 and insists that the Court of Appeals was right in the statement in the opinion that the facts presented are essentially different in these cases from those with which we are dealing in the present case.
Certiorari, whereby relator seeks to have quashed, because of alleged conflict with the rulings of this court, the opinion and judgment of the Kansas City Court of Appeals in the certain cause, entitled, "J. N. Roberts, appellant, vs. Nettleton Bank, respondent," appealed to the latter court from the Circuit Court of Caldwell County. The opinion of the Court of Appeals, to which (as we have uniformly ruled) we must look for the evidentiary facts in every certiorari proceeding grounded on alleged conflict of opinion, is as follows:
