Mansfield v. Sinaloa Land & Fruit Co.
Mansfield v. Sinaloa Land & Fruit Co.
Opinion of the Court
There is nothing to this appeal. In the complaint it is alleged that the plaintiff is the owner of 103 shares of the capital stock of the defendant, a corporation; that without “legal notice” a meeting of the stockholders was called and held to authorize the board of directors to levy an assessment; that the board without “legal notice” levied the assessment and without notice to him declared it delinquent and ordered his stock sold for nonpayment of the assessment; and that “a portion of a previous assessment had not been paid.” On these grounds and no other the plaintiff asked that the sale of his stock be enjoined. On these issues the case was tried to the court, who found all of them in the defendant’s favor. Judgment was entered accordingly denying the relief prayed for ánd dissolving the temporary restraining order theretofore issued. The plaintiff appeals on the judgment roll without a bill of exceptions. So all we have before us are the pleadings, the findings, and the judgment.
The first assignment is the court erred in finding “that plaintiff has not paid the assessment upon said stock, nor any part thereof, and that the assessment, together with the costs of advertising the same, remained due and payable to the defendant.”
Let the judgment be affirmed, with costs. Such is the order.
