Jones v. Hall

<p>Special Finding. — Bequest for. — When Sufficiently Appears. — A special finding must appear to have been requested by one or both the parties, in order that it may be regarded as, and have the legal effect of, a special finding. And where it appears from the finding that “The court, having been requested to find the facts specially, makes the following finding of facts in this cause and conclusions of law thereon,” it sufficiently appears that the findings were requested by one or both of the parties to the action.</p> <p>Mechanic’s Lien. — Special Binding. — Sale of Material for a Specific Purpose.- — Becovery.—Where the special findings in amechanic’s lien case simply show that the materials were purchased for, and used in, the building, it does not necessarily follow that they were sold to be used for that purpose, and without a finding of such á sale, there can be no recovery.</p> <p>Opinion on petition for rehearing by Gavin, J.</p>
