Ulman, Einstein & Co. v. Effinger

First. A judgment may be set aside for fraud notwithstanding •the fact that no defense was made at the time it' was rendered, although the defendant was properly served with summons by copy thereof left at her usual place of residence.

Second. A judgment procured against a party on an account which she never owed, nor,became either directly or indirectly liable for its payment, constitutes a fraud on the court -rendering such judgment, which should be set aside in a proper proceeding brought for that purpose.

*792Third. An averment in a petition that goods or merchandise were' sold to a husband, and that afterwards and before suit is brought to recover the price thereof, the plaintiffs inserted the name of the wife of such husband in said account, and without her knowledge or consent, is a sufficient averment of fraud to constitute a cause of action and a demurrer to such petition and pertinent interrogatories attached thereto is properly overruled.
