Kleeman v. J. & P. Baltz Brewing Co.
Supreme Court of New Jersey · Decided November 9, 1903 · Fort, Syckel
70 N.J.L. 202; 41 Vroom 202; 60 A. 408; 1903 N.J. Sup. Ct. LEXIS 59

Kleeman v. J. & P. Baltz Brewing Co.

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

This is an application to set aside a judgment by confession because the affidavit does not, as required by the statute, state the true consideration of the bond. It sets forth that the true consideration of the bond was money loaned and advanced by plaintiffs to defendant.

The evidence shows that a considerable portion of the debt was for beer sold by plaintiffs to defendant. The judgment is therefore set aside. Reading v. Reading, 4 Zab. 358; Clapp v. Ely, 3 Dutcher 555.
