Edens-Birch Lumber Co. v. Scofield
Edens-Birch Lumber Co. v. Scofield
Opinion of the Court
Under the law and from all the facts and circumstances in evidence in the trial of this case, I conclude that complainant is entitled to judgment against the defendant for the full amount paid by complainant, together with interest thereon as provided by law, from the date of such payment.
And I further find that the plan by which the so-called logging contractors were paid was not a subterfuge, but in fact substantially the same plan antedated by many years the enactment of either Act involved in this suit, and was, therefore, a good faith method adopted by the complainant in conducting its business.
The complainant is requested to prepare form of judgment and if appeal is to be taken, proposed Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law and submit to opposing counsel.
