84 Cal. 27 | Cal. | 1890
After argument in Bank, we are satisfied that the judgment should be affirmed.
The action is for the enforcement of a street assessment. Patrick Cunningham in bis individual capacity, and also Patrick Cunningham as a representative of the estate of May Cunningham, deceased, were made parties
Respondent offered to amend the record by attaching to it a certified copy of a formal written appearance for Cunningham as administrator of the estate, filed in the court below; but, in the first place, such document, not being part of the judgment roll, could not be part of the record here; and in the second place, under the views above expressed, it would not be necessary.
(The printed record contains a statement in parenthesis, made by some one, that the complaint was amended by changing “executor” to “administrator”; but this statement is no part of the judgment roll or of the record in this case, and cannot be considered. It would make no difference, however, as the appearance by attorney was afterwards. And this answers appellant’s second point as to the service of the amended complaint.)
We think that the averments of the complaint were sufficient, particularly in the absence of a demurrer.
Judgment affirmed.
Thornton, J., Sharpstein, J., Fox, J., and Paterson, J., concurred.
