Statement of the Case.
Bill by Marie A. Tollar, administratrix de bonis non, with the will annexed, of the estate of August Brejcha, deceased, against Bohemian Building and Loan Association for an accounting of moneys alleged to be due the deceased from the defendant Association, of which the deceased had been a member, and its treasurer. The bill also prayed for a discovery. Defendant answered denying that it owed the deceased Brejcha anything and averring that there had been an accounting by agreement and the account paid. A general replication was filed to the answer without amending or asking leave to amend the bill. From a decree dismissing the bill for want of equity and adjudging that complainant pay the cost in due course of administration, complainant appeals.
Abstract of the Decision.
1. Account, § 12 —when settlement of account Bars relief on Mil for accounting. An account stated and paid is a bar to any relief whatever on a bill for a general accounting in which no particular errors are assigned in the account stated.
2. Account stated, § IS*—sufficiency of MU to impeach. While an account stated and settled may be impeached for fraud or mistake in a court of equity, it can only be done upon a bill distinctly and clearly setting forth the specific errors with distinct averments as to the time when the fraud, mistake, concealment or misrepresentation that caused such omissions was discovered and what the discovery is, so that the court may clearly see whether by the exercise of ordináry diligence the discovery might not have been earlier made.
3. Appeal and error, § 245*—when denial of leave to file amended Mil not reviewaMe. Action of court in denying complainant leave to file an amended bill after all the evidence was heard by the court, held not reviewable where the record does not show any motion or any attempt whatever to amend the bill outside of the certificate of evidence signed' by the judge.
