McGregor v. Shaw
Decided July 1, 1858
California Supreme Court · decided 1858-07-01
The question in this case turned on the sufficiency of the complaint, which is in substance as follows: The defendant had commenced an action against the plaintiff, to recover some $3000, alleged to have been loaned to her by the plaintiff. The plaintiff had a valid and meritorious defense against this claim, but for the sake of peace, and to avoid litigation, he paid her five hundred dollars in full satisfaction of her pretended cause of action.
