Dickerman v. Lomas Nettleton Co.

Opinion of the Court

PEASLEY, J.

The answer in this case is voluminous and in some paragraph violates the rule against the pleading of evidential matters, but threaded through the whole of the nineteen paragraphs a proper, legal defense can be discerned. The motion to expunge would in this case, if granted, perform the function of a demurrer, and it has been repeatedly held that it can not be made to serve that purpose.

The motion to expunge is therefore denied.
