New Cases
W. j. McGee vs.. A. M. Bergevin ct
al, corporation. ON appeal from
justice court of township one. The
complaint recites that on the 1st day
of January, 1908, defendants became
Indebted to plaintiff in the sum of
$500; thereafter there was paid $3.50
on this Indebtedness Suit was
brought in the justice court 10 re-
cover the balance of $3.50, with in
terest at 7 per cent, and for costs.
The answer sets forth that the justice
court had no jurisdiction to try said
cause Of action, as the debt was not
incurred or made payable in the
county OF Amador; that neither Of
the defendants resided in this
county, but have their place of bust
and furthermore that the plaintiff
for the last five years past has been
resident of San francisco, and has
during that time voted in said city.
Furthermore, the answer alleges that
in May, 1907, plaintiff made a bet
with defendant A. M. Bergevin, that
certain mining stock would not by
the 1st of January, 1903 reach GER
tain quotation, and that if said stock
did not reach said quotation value
defendant would forfeit his check for
$500, which was left with a stake
holder chosen by the parties to hold
the same in furtherance of said bet.
The said check was drawn on the
California Safe Deposit and Trust
Co., which was then supposed to be
solvent, but before January lst, 1908,
the bank failed, and became bank
rup.; that the mining stock referred
to was not quoted at the figure named
on the day stated, and plaintiff was
entitled to, and did receive the same
from the stakeholder; and in ad-
dition has received from A. M.
l3ergevin $3.50 in full discharge of any
obligation 10y reason of said bet. The
case was tried before justice GoldneI
on April 8, 1909. and Judgment there
after rendered for plaintiff for S25C
and interests, with SIT costs. From
this judgment defendant appeals on
question OF both law and facts.
