208 N.W. 642 | Minn. | 1926
The assignments of error are:
"First: The findings of fact and the judgment entered thereon are not sustained by the evidence.
"Second: That the conclusions of law and judgment entered thereon are not sustained by the findings of fact."
1. There are many findings of fact. They cover 8 printed pages and are divided into 13 separately numbered paragraphs. Where the error assigned is that findings are not sustained by the evidence, the assignment must specify the particular finding challenged. It has been held many times that a specification of error in the form of defendant's first assignment is insufficient as it fails to point out what finding is claimed to be without support in the evidence. Bladine v. Bladine,
Defendants made a motion in which they asked for a new trial, and further asked that if a new trial were denied the conclusions of law be amended to read as follows:
"It is considered by the court that judgment be rendered and entered herein as follows:
"First: That the plaintiff have and recover judgment against the defendant, John M. Garvin, in the sum of nine thousand seven hundred twelve and sixty-hundredths ($9,712.60) dollars, with interest thereon at the rate of nine per cent per annum from and after April 18, 1923.
"Second: That the purported transfers and deeds made by the defendants, John M. Garvin and wife, to Fred J. Anderson and by *103 Fred J. Anderson, a single man, to the defendant, Rosa Garvin, attempting to convey the following described real property (describing it) be and the same and each of them hereby are declared fraudulent and void as to the plaintiff herein, and that said deeds and each of them, so far as the rights of this plaintiff [are] concerned, be and they are hereby, together with the record thereof, canceled.
"Third: That the judgment hereby recovered and entered against the defendants, John Garvin and Rosa Garvin, be and it hereby is made a lien upon the above described premises, subject only to the first mortgage on said premises.
"That the plaintiff have and recover its taxable costs and disbursements herein."
"Let judgment be so entered."
The court denied a new trial, but amended the conclusions of law to read as proposed and asked for in defendants' motion. As these conclusions were put in their present form on defendants' motion and conform therewith in all respects, defendants are not in position to attack them. 3 C.J. 671. The judgment was entered pursuant to and in accordance with the conclusions of law as so amended.
Although no reviewable questions are presented, we have examined the record and are satisfied that the conclusions reached by the learned trial court upon both the facts and the law are correct, and the judgment rendered is affirmed. *104
