Robinson v. Godfrey
Opinion
Lead Opinion
Houser, J.
Appeal from a judgment rendered in favor of defendants on the failure of plaintiff to amend his complaint after demurrer sustained thereto.
The complaint as set forth in the record on appeal covers approximately thirty pages, and while it is mechanically divided into nine paragraphs, the story of the pleader consists in allegations more or less appropriate to several different causes of action without a proper or any attempt being made to separately state them. There are first set forth facts which, with the addition of certain other facts, might form the basis for a suit in. equity on several different counts by plaintiff as a stockholder of a corporation against certain defendants for alleged fraud committed by them as officers in the management of the business of the corporation; secondly, purported causes of action in partnership accounting are attempted to be alleged as against defendant Godfrey only: and, thirdly, a similar cause of action as against defendants Godfrey and Warner. One of the named defendants is wholly disconnected from any of the allegations of the complaint other than that such defendant is alleged to be the wife of one of the other defendants.
