Ramey v. Myers

Plaintiff W. E. Williams has appealed from a judgment dismissing as to all the defendants but Reed this action to enforce payment of two promissory notes and to foreclose a chattel mortgage given to secure the notes. The judgment was rendered in response to a motion for summary judgment by defendant Cairns and a motion for dismissal by defendants Arvidson and Carroll. It followed an order which declared that it appeared from the affidavits of the parties that the "debt sued upon has been satisfied by a judgment (§ 726 CCP), and that there are no triable issues presented by the pleadings."
