Hawes v. Wells

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Mar 1, 1910
137 App. Div. 906 (N.Y. App. Div. 1910)

Opinion

March, 1910.

Present — Clarke, McLaughlin, Laughlin, Scott and Dowling, JJ.


We recently held that this complaint does not state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of action. (See Hawes v. Dunlop, No. 1, 136 App. Div. 629.) Any answer is good enough for a bad complaint. Therefore this answer was good enough. Order reversed, with ten dollars costs and disbursements, and motion denied, with ten dollars costs.
