School District No. 1, City of Plattsmouth, Nebraska v. Pomerene
Opinion of the Court
This is an action by a contractor against a school district for money due for installation of a heating plant.

We have carefully examined the entire record bearing upon the matter, and are unable to approve this position. There is no substantial difference in the present issues and
