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

By the Court:

1. We are of opinion that the defendant must be considered to have been a “toll gatherer” within the intent of *491the statute, and that the complaint in this respect stated a cause of action against him.

2. But we also think that the several causes of action found in the complaint, though separately stated, were improperly united. (Code Civil Procedure, Sec. 427.)

Judgment reversed and cause remanded, with directions to sustain the demurrer to the complaint.
