Washington Supreme Court, 1896

Kelley v. Pierce County

Kelley v. Pierce County
Washington Supreme Court · Decided September 25, 1896
15 Wash. 697; 46 P. 253; 1896 Wash. LEXIS 281

Kelley v. Pierce County

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

The judgment in this case is directly in conflict with the decision of this court in State, ex rel. Barton v. Hopkins, 14 Wash, 59 (44 Pac. 134), and Mullen v. Sackett, 14 Wash. 100 (44 Pac. 136). The judgment will therefore be reversed and the cause remanded to the lower court with instructions to sustain defendants’ demurrer to the complaint.
