Glenn v. Erath
Glenn v. Erath
Opinion of the Court
This is an appeal from an order of the district court of Greeley county opening the judgment and allowing the defendant, Emma Erath, to come in and defend. The principal question involved in the proceeding is whether she had notice of the pendency of the foreclosure suit to which she was made a party defendant and in which her rights to the land were barred in time to answer and defend, she having been served by publication. There was only circumstantial evidence to prove that she had such notice, and there was direct evidence that she did not have the notice. The court below found in her favor on the question of fact, and its finding can not be reviewed here.
Again, it is contended that the plaintiff in the foreclosure suit would have been entitled to judgment for taxes paid even if his tax deed had been declared void
The order is affirmed.
