International Supply Co. v. Torico Oil Corp.

OPINION OF THE COURT Plaintiff (appellee) sued defendants (appellants) on account, to recover for fishing tools sold to be used on an oil and gas well for the purpose of fishing out tools that had been lost in the well. The account consisted of several items. Plaintiff recovered a money judgment and was decreed to have a materialman's lien and foreclosure thereof. Defendants appeal.

Appellants assign errors, first, that the court erred in rendering the money judgment against defendants because the account was not proven, and, second, that the material furnished was not of the character for which a materialman's lien could be claimed. As appellee makes no argument in support of the decree establishing the lien and for foreclosure thereof and says it does not care to repel appellants'

Appeal and Error 4CJ § 2853 p. 878 n. 82. *Page 105 attack upon this portion of the judgment, we shall consider only appellants' first point.

From an examination of the record, we are convinced that the money judgment in favor of appellee should be affirmed. That portion of the judgment decreeing that the materialman's lien claimed by appellants be foreclosed is reversed. The appellants prevailing will recover their costs in this court. The cause is remanded, with directions to proceed consistently herewith, and it is so ordered.
