Kenison v. Campbell

Action to Recover for Services Rendered—Complaint.—A complaint in an action for a balance unpaid for services rendered -defendant by plaintiff at the former’s special instance and request at an agreed compensation, is not uncertain in alleging -that the services were rendered “upon an open, current book account.” That phrase may be disregarded.

Id.—Interest —Uncertainty in Demand for.—No injury results to the defendant from any uncertainty in the plaintiff’s demand for interest, if the court allows no interest prior to the filing of the complaint.

Id.—Consideration for Negotiable Instrument—Pleading.—In counting upon a negotiable instrument it is not necessary to allege a consideration, for it is presumed.

Id.—Evidence—Sufficiency to Sustain Findings.—In this action to recover for services rendered by the plaintiff for the defendant, and also for money loaned, the evidence warranted a finding for plaintiff and a denial of defendant’s counterclaim.
