Description

This is a suit by W. M. Acreman on a sworn account for labor and materials furnished to build a road and to establish and foreclose a mechanics and materialmans lien on 160 acres of land. Henry S. Fuller, II, Gerald J. Creighton, Jr., and National Western Life Insurance Company were named as defendants in the plaintiffs petition. Fuller defaulted and the trial court rendered judgment against him awarding Acreman a recovery of the full amount of the debt. Trial of the issues as to the other defendants was to the court without a jury and judgment was rendered establishing a mechanics and materialmans lien on the 160 acres of land as security for Acremans debt, foreclosing the lien, and ordering the land sold to satisfy the money judgment. Creighton was in reality only a nominal party and only National Western perfected an appeal.
