Velasquez V. Mascarenas

Appellants, plaintiffs below, filed suit to impose a constructive trust on certain land in San Juan County and for an accounting. Celso Mascarenas, one of four defendants, answered denying the allegations of the complaint and setting up laches and statute of limitations. By cross-complaint, appellee sought to quiet title to the land involved which he had repurchased from the state on July 21, 1942. Two of the defendants disclaimed any interest and the other defendant was found by the trial court to be a non-resident upon whom no process was served.
