Analysis
No analysis yet. When one exists it is a model's reading of this opinion — the rulings it reviewed, whether it agrees with the court, and the authorities it checked — shown beside the court's own disposition, never in place of it. How analyses are made.
Opinion — Heydemeldt
Heydemeldt, Justice, delivered the opinion of the Court.
We have before decided in Russell v. Amador, that where a case is tried by the Judge alone, the record must disclose a finding by him of the facts, and a statement of his conclusions of law. And without such finding and statement, there was no basis for the judgment to be supported. The District Court therefore erred in affirming the judgment of the County Court. The judgment of the District Court is therefore reversed, and judgment is here rendered, reversing the judgment of the County Court, and remanding the case for a new trial. Costs to abide the event of the suit.
