Inman v. Corwin

Brady, J.

This suggestion is made that the plaintiff, if this action be continued, may remodel that pleading so as to present succinctly and distinctly the facts which are infelicitously arrayed in the present complaint. This is more particularly necessary for the reason that the contents of the complaint foreshadow a conspiracy between Wilkin and Corwin, which doubtless could be made substantial by proper averments. The judgment should be modified so as to allow the complaint to be amended within 10 days on payment of the costs of the demurrer and of this appeaL

All concur.
