Description
The opinion of the court was delivered by The appellants-plaintiffs filed suit in the district court
alleging that they purchased a cold storage locker plant from the
appellee-defendant on March 21, 1953, and contracted to pay the
sum of $17,000 therefor; that the contract provided that
plaintiffs should make a down payment finally agreed upon,
according to a mortgage between the parties, in the amount of
$8,500 and semi-annual payments of $750, together with interest
until the purchase price had been paid. Plaintiffs in their
petition allege that they were in possession of the plant and
made payments thereon until April 20, 1956; that on said date,
plaintiffs surrendered the plant to the defendant and advised him
that they were rescinding the contract because of fraudulent
misrepresentations. On February 20, 1957, plaintiffs filed their
original petition in this suit in which they sought to recover
the sum of $13,993.75 paid to the defendant on the purchase
price, and alleged that the contract had been rescinded because
of the fraudulent misrepresentations on the part of the
defendant. The trial court sustained a demurrer to the
plaintiffs' amended petition, and plaintiffs appeal from that
order.
