Description
[198 Wash Page 77] BEALS, J. -- Plaintiff instituted this action against defendant, seeking judgment upon three promissory notes, all dated July 26, 1935, payable ninety days after date, which notes plaintiff held by assignment. By her answer and cross-complaint, the defendant pleaded fraud in the procurement of the notes, and set up a collateral agreement between herself and the payee, which she alleged constituted a defense to the notes; defendant also alleging that plaintiff held the notes as trustee for the original payee, who was made an additional defendant to the action, and that plaintiff, at the time the notes were assigned to him, had knowledge of facts which advised him that defendant [198 Wash Page 78] was not liable upon the notes as upon negotiable instruments. The action was tried to a jury, which returned a verdict in favor of defendant Crowell, and from a judgment upon this verdict, dismissing the action, plaintiff has appealed.
