147 Ky. 766 | Ky. Ct. App. | 1912
Opinion of the Court by
Affirming.
The Farmers Bank of Frankfort lent to the Farmers Bank of Wickliffe at one time $20,000, and later $5,000. All of the mqney was returned except $4,837.58.- J. B. Wickliffe, J. A. Rich and others executed to the Farmers Bank of Frankfort a bond to secure it. The Farmers Bank of Frankfort brought this suit to recover on the bond the balance of the money due it. The sureties filed an answer in which they pleaded in effect that by the bond they only bound themselves for the repayment of the- original sum of $20,000, and that they were Hot bound for the subsequent loan of $5,000. The plaintiff filed a demurrer to the answer. In this condition of things the papers of the case were lost. The circuit court sustained the plaintiff’s demurrer to the answer, and the defendants failing to plead further entered a judgment for the amount of the debt with interest from April 18, 1910. The defendants appealed to this court, and on the appeal the judgment was affirmed on the ground that the pleadings in the case were not copied in the transcript, and that the court must presume that the circuit court decided properly, (See Wickliffe, &c. v. Farmers Bank of Frankfort, 142 Ky., 35.) After that judgment had been affirmed and on August 29, 1911, the plaintiff in that case upon notice entered a motion that the court -correct the judgment for clerical misprision so as to make it bear interest from the time the money was due, March 2, 1908, instead of from April 18, 1910. The court overruled the motion, holding that there was no clerical error in the judgment. From this judgment the plaintiff appeals.
It is insisted that the plaintiff’s petition prayed judgment'for-the debt with interest from the time the debt was due, and that the entry of the judgment giving interest not from that time, but from April 18, 1910, was a mere error of the clerk and may be corrected on the record as a clerical misprision. But the original pe
Judgment affirmed.
