Ford v. Baird

Wisconsin Supreme Court

Decided January 15, 1849

Wisconsin Supreme Court · decided 1849-01-15

An action of assumpsit was brought against the defendant Ford, as the receiver of the Green Bay lumbering company, and against the other defendants, as members of said lumbering company. The declaration counted upon a note given by Ford, as receiver, to D. Jones & Co., and there were also the common money counts. A part of the defendants suffered a default for want of a plea, and others of them pleaded the general issue, and one, a special plea.

Decided 1849-01-15

Stow, C. J.

¶1This was a judgment by default in the court below, and we do not discover any such error in the record as will warrant its reversal, Though the special count may perhaps be bad, the common counts are unobjectionable, and are sufficient to support the judgment; and, after verdict or default, this is enough.

¶2Judgment affirmed.
