THE SECOND APPEAL.

The Decision of the Supreme Court in
the Case of Merrill We. Merrill.
An opinion OF the supreme court was
received yesterday for fling at the Los
Angeles office in the case OF Matte Mer-
rill, respondent, vs.. F. H. Merrill, ap-
pellant.
1t was an action brought by the re-
spondent as vendee to recover q sum OF
money paid to the appellant, vendor, as
a partial payment upon the purchase
price Of q certain tract of real estate
cnder a contract.
The respondent made no tender OF the
balance due, and demanded no deed,
but alleged in her complaint that the
defendant rescinded the contract, bas-
ing her right to recover upon the
alleged acts constituting the rescission.
She recovered judgment in the trial
court. and appeal was taken from it.
The case was once before heard by the
supreme court upon an appeal involving
the sufficiency of the complaint in
stating cause of action.
In the first decision it was averred
that while the complaint was not per-
feet as an example OF correct pleading,
stitute cause of action for the recovery
of the money paid the defendant, this
view being taken by the court upon the
ground that the conduct of the defend
ant was such as to put him in default Of
the contract, and that such default gave
the plaintiff an immediate right of &C
ton to recover the money paid. 1t was
in effect held that the acts alleged in
the complaint constituted reseission Of
the contract upon the part of the de-
fendant.
The supreme court says that in the
present case the complaint stood exact
ly in the same position as it had before.
The appellant insisted that in order to
entitle respondent to recover the com.
plant should have stated that she was
ready. able and willing to carry out the
terms of the contract, and that che
should have introduced evidence at the
trial in suppart of such allegation. The
law of the case was to the contrary,
however. hence the judgment would be
affirmed.
