Herrington v. City of Dublin

Broyles, C. J.,

dissenting. In my opinion the general demurrer to the petition was properly sustained. As the plaintiff elected to sue for money had and received, it was an action on an implied contract; and, the transfer of the tax executions having been made by the defendant “without recourse,” all implied warranties were eliminated, and a recovery could not be had in the suit brought. Furthermore, I think that under the facts of the case as shown by the pleadings the action was barred by the statute of limitations.
