Economy Mortgage Co. v. Boulevard Land & Mortgage Co.
Economy Mortgage Co. v. Boulevard Land & Mortgage Co.
Opinion of the Court
I think the books may be searched in vain for a parallel case.
The method The Economy Mortgage Company used to get relief was entirely unknown and unwarranted in our practice of law, and the court below was absolutely right in sustaining the demurrer.
Shorn of all verbiage and leg.al phraseology, what is it the plaintiff is seeking to do by this amended petition? It is to have the court declare it to be assignee of its own mortgage, when the land upon which that mortgage was given had been foreclosed and it had purchased the mortgaged premises.
Now we are not saying necessarily at
We have reviewed this whole record and have spent much time in trying to unravel what is a difficult and complicated matter, and we have come to the conclusion that the Common Pleas Court was right in sustaining the demurrer, that this action could not be maintained and while holding the Court of Appeals of the Fourth District was within its power and right in permitting an amendment to the petition when it came to the Court of Appeals on appeal, yet, from the view we take of this, the amended petition does not give the plaintiff any right tq maintain the suit that it is seeking to maintain, and we think that the demurrer to the oetition must be sustained, and the petition dismissed, and if the plaintiff has any right iñ the premises, he must proceed in a different way to obtain it.
The decree will, therefore, be, demurrer sustained, petition dismissed.
