DECISIONS OF The
SUPREME COURT

In the Supreme Court, state OF North
Dakota, October, 1912, term. North
Dakota company, a corporation,
plaintiff and appellant, VS., G. Mix, de-
n respondent.
Plaintiff brought action for $1,125.
Defendant counterclaimed for 81, 500.
Judgment entered in favor of defend
ant for mount of counterclaim upon
the failure Of plaintiff to ppear at
time of trial. Application to be re-
IeVed from such default judgment was
made under section 1884 r. c. 1905
and allowed, but upon condition that
plaintiff pay to defendant the sum of
$500. Held, that upon an appeal
wherein the correctness of the order
relieving PLAINTIFFS default is not
questioned this court will consider
only whether the terms imposed are
just. If the trial court finds that the
platntin has excused his default, the
terms imposed should not be in the
nature of a penalty upon plaintiff. If
he has not excused his default his APP
.plication should have been denied. The
sum of $500 was allowed upon the the
DRY that defendant had been put to
the expense of a trip to Cuba costing
him $500, had incurred the sum Of
$3.50 expense for attorneys fees. and
for $50 taxable costs. Held, for reasons
stated in the opinion hat the expens-
es of he trip to Cuba were in no. man
ner chargeable. to the default of
PLAINTIFF and that the allowance of the
said attorneys fees and costs is ex-
cessfve and an abuse of discretion.
Under all the circumstances of the case
anything allowed over the sum of 500
was an abuse of discretion of the trial
court. Judgment reduced to said sum
of 500.
