195 P. 562 | Or. | 1921
The action of the lower court in overruling the demurrer and denying the motion to vacate the injunction are the errors assigned:
The grounds of demurrer are specified as follows:
“First: That against this defendant the court, has no jurisdiction of the subject matter of this suit.
“Second: That there is a defect, or misjoinder, of parties defendant in that this defendant is not a proper party to said suit, and has no interest in the subject matter set out in plaintiff’s complaint.
“Third: That said complaint does not state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of suit against this defendant, or facts sufficient to entitle plaintiff to equitable relief.”
The first and third of these specifications involve the same question, and will be so considered.
“A court of equity which has obtained jurisdiction of a controversy on any ground or for any purpose will retain, such jurisdiction for the administering of complete relief and doing entire justice with respect to the subject matter of the dispute. By virtue of this rule, a court of equity, when its jurisdiction has been invoked for any equitable purpose, will proceed to determine any other equities existing between the parties, connected with the main subject of the suit, and grant all relief necessary to an entire adjustment of such subject, provided it be authorized by the pleadings.”
Finding no error in the record, the decree is affirmed.
Affirmed.
