242 Mo. 316 | Mo. | 1912
The issues in this case are precisely the same as those decided by this court In Banc in State ex rel. Buchanan County v. Imel, at this term, 242 Mo. 293, except that in the case at bar judgment was rendered in favor of defendant Lydy upon a demurrer which, in addition to assailing the constitutionality of part of section 10695, Revised Statutes 1909, also alleges that no bond is filed with said petition, nor is a certified copy thereof filed.
As the plaintiff’s petition states a cause of action against the defendant, we will reverse the judgment of the circuit court of Greene county and direct it to overrule defendant’s demurrer and try the cause pursuant to the law as announced in our opinion filed in the ease of State ex rel. Buchanan County v. Imel, supra.
It is so ordered.
