Mr. Chief Justice Butler,
concurring.
The reversal of the judgment is right. The defendant pleaded that the transaction was usurious under chapter 159, Session Laws of 1919, being sections 3781 to 3801, both inclusive, of Compiled Laws. The district court upheld the plea and dismissed the suit. Thereafter this court held, in Gronert v. People, 95 Colo. 508, 37 P. (2d) 396, that the statute pleaded as a defense was unconstitutional and void. The defense not being good, it was error to dismiss the suit.
Me. Justice Bouck concurs herein.
