Ripps v. Hermann
Ripps v. Hermann
Opinion of the Court
This is an appeal from a decree of the district court sustaining a general demurrer, and dismissing the suit on a refusal to amend. An injunction has been applied for in this court to restrain a sale of property under execution pending this appeal. The petition endeavored to set up grounds for an injunction against an execution issued by virtue of a judgment obtained by appellee against appellant, which judgment was heretofore affirmed by this court, and a writ of error refused by the Supreme Court, and to have the judgment set aside. The ground upon which it was sought to set aside the judgment was that appellant had discovered a letter from appellee which he had lost or misplaced, in which appellee had claimed that appellant, on July 3, 1912, only owed him $616, and then came into court and swore that appellant owed him $1,881.20. There is no allegation that -any effort was made to produce the letter at the trial, that appellee was examined in regard to it, or that the existence of the letter was ever revealed to any one until after the cause had been decided in the Court of Civil Appeals. Counsel for appellant, in their argument, stated that they heard nothing of the letter until after the cause had been decided-against appellant in this court, although appellant knew he had it.
The allegations as to the perjury of ap-pellee are too uncertain and indefinite to sustain the action declared upori.
The judgment is affirmed.
