Fisher v. Hardwood Manufacturing Co.

Opinion of the Court

Grant, C. J.

(after stating the facts). The cases of Noyes v. Hillier, 65 Mich. 636, and Newbauer v. Newbauer, 112 Mich. 562, have no application. In those cases the defendant did not appear. In this case the jurisdictional defects were waived by a general appearance, plea of the general issue, and trial upon the merits. Manhard v. Schott, 37 Mich. 234; Dailey v. Kennedy, 64 Mich. 211.

Judgment reversed, and new trial ordered.

The other Justices concurred.
