2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority““It probably would be more accurate to say, as a matter of law, that under the particular facts here presented a previous inquiry would have been futile. We need, however, not go that far. It is sufficient to say the record presented a fair question of fact on that point for the determination of the trial court.” (p. 591.)”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majoritye.g. Lane v. Courange““The ‘actual notice’ mentioned in . . . 67-223 may be express or implied.
