2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority““It should not be forgotten that in the simplification of our civil code and the statutory abolition of the distinctions between actions at law and suits in equity (R. S. 60-201), the legislature was not engaged in curtailing the essential powers of our courts of general jurisdiction. The legislative purpose was rather to emancipate the courts from those ancient artificialities of procedure which handicapped them in dealing out whatever measure of redress, legal or equitable justice, in any case required.””
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majority““In this jurisdiction, where all distinctions between forms of actions at law and of suits in equity are abolished, all matters of justiciable controversy arising between the same parties, whether legal or equitable, and whether already liquidated or merely capable of ascertainment, may be tried and adjudicated in one action.””
