Description
WASTE, C.J. This action was brought by plaintiffs in the superior court. The complaint contained four counts. The first count alleged that plaintiffs delivered $700 to defendant Charles Greenberg, which money he was to use for the purpose of purchasing certain real property for them; that, however, after accepting and receiving the $700 for that purpose, he purchased the property in his own name and converted the $700 to his own use and benefit; that plaintiffs demanded a return of the money but no part thereof has been returned or paid. The second count alleged that plaintiffs had demanded a deed by defendant to them of the property but defendant had refused to comply with the demand and purported to retain ownership of the property in his own name and right. The third count was in the form of an action to quiet title to the property. The fourth count alleged defendants indebtedness to plaintiffs in the sum of $700, money had and received by him for their use and benefit. The prayer of the pleading was for judgment against defendant in the sum of $700; or in the alternative that plaintiffs ownership and right to possession of the property be decreed; that defendant be adjudged to have no right or interest therein and be ordered to execute and deliver a deed to plaintiffs, or in event of failure so to do, that the court authorize execution of such a deed; and that plaintiffs have costs of suit and general relief.
