Action to foreclose a mechanic’s lien.

The only point presented for decision relates to the claim of lien filed in the recorder’s office. The claim as filed states that the plaintiff was by the contract to perform the work and labor and furnish materials for the alteration, construction, and repairing of a certain building, that he did perform the work and labor and furnished materials for the purpose indicated, that it was agreed he was to be paid for the same what they should be reasonably worth, and that they were reasonably worth $601.80.

The law requires that the claim filed shall contain inter alla a • statement of the terms, time given, and conditions of the contract (Code Civ. Proc., § 1187), and it is urged that the time given was not stated in the claim. So far as we can see, all the terms and conditions are stated. We cannot judicially say that they are not stated as agreed on by the parties and expressed in the contract. The words of the statute, “time given,” in our judgment mean the time of payment for the work and labor performed and materials furnished, as agreed on and expressed in the contract. As said above, we cannot say that the contract is not accurately stated ; that is, stated as made and agreed on. If this is so, no distinct time was agreed on, but the time of payment was left to the rule fixed by the law on such a state of facts. When this is *105 the case, no time is given in comtemplation of law, and the requirement that the “time given” must be stated does not apply. If the words “time given” refer to the time agreed on for the completion of the contract, and no period of time for such completion is fixed by the contract, but such time is allowed as the law gives, the same rule applies, and no time need be stated in the claim. "

We are of opinion that the claim, as filed, complied with the statute, and is sufficient.

Judgment affirmed.

Hearing in Bank denied.
