Harney v. Porter

California Supreme Court
Harney v. Porter, 62 Cal. 511 (Cal. 1881)
1881 Cal. LEXIS 543
Coubt

Harney v. Porter

Opinion of the Court

The Coubt :

The complaint in this case was verified. The answer was a general denial only. Service of the answer was admitted by plaintiff’s attorney, and “ verification thereof waived.” The Court below held the answer sufficient. It is here contended that there was a waiver of the effect of the verification of the complaint, and that the answer need not contain any specific denial.

We think the answer was insufficient.

Judgment reversed and cause remanded.
