Northern Cedar Co. v. French

Washington Supreme Court
Northern Cedar Co. v. French, 233 P. 39 (Wash. 1925)
133 Wash. 692; 1925 Wash. LEXIS 1280
PER CURIAM.

Northern Cedar Co. v. French

Opinion of the Court

On Rehearing.

Per Curiam.

In the petition for rehearing, respondents object to that portion of our opinion which says that they raised the objection that the legislature could not constitutionally regulate the business of a commission merchant. Northern Cedar Co. v. French, 131 Wash. 394, 230 Pac. 837. A re-examination of the briefs shows that they did not so argue, but that appellants presented the question fully. We are glad to correct the opinion in this regard.

Respondents also ask us to correct the inference raised by the *693 opinion that they questioned the sufficiency of tbe title to the commission merchants’ act under discussion. We did not mean to leave that inference. The question was not briefed at all, though it was mentioned in oral argument. It may be said that we raised the question ourselves and asked for and received briefs from both sides of it. In their brief respondents stated that they thought the title sufficient.
