78 N.E.2d 40 | Ohio | 1948
Relator's brief states the sole question presented is: Did the right to receive a pension become vested in relator by reason of the judgment and orders of this court on March 24, 1937? If such right did vest, relator then contends the pension board had no authority to do other than was ordered by this court, namely, pay relator a pension of $100 per month.
The demurrer admits all the well pleaded allegations of the answer and searches the entire record. State, ex rel. Deal, v.Industrial Commission,
The relator by his demurrer admits the allegation of the answer that this court in cause No. 25985 issued a writ of mandamus directing the payment of $50. The sole question determined in the former mandamus proceeding was the right of relator to receive that sum as a pension for 14 days. SeeState, ex rel. *191 Hayes, v. Pfeifer et al., Board of Trustees of Firemen'sPension Fund of City of Columbus,
The demurrer in the instant case admits that subsequent payments were made as alleged in the answer. The relator's pension was granted when such a pension was a gratuity rather than a vested or contractual right. (Mell et al., Trustees, v.State, ex rel. Fritz,
The demurrer is sustained as to the petition and overruled as to the answer, and a writ of mandamus is denied.
Writ denied.
