IF THERE IS NO CLAIM [6 records]

  • Tort Law (common law)
CONT

In connection with an ordinary action, it should be borne in mind that a wrongful distress may be either illegal, excessive or irregular. If there was no right of distress at all, or if, although there was a right of distress, a wrongful act had been committed at the beginning of the levy(for example, in the time of entry or the seizure of privileged goods), the distress is illegal. If, although a right of distress exists, a wrongful act has been committed in the seizure of more goods than were reasonably necessary to satisfy the claim, the distress is excessive. And if, although a right of distress exists, a wrongful act has been committed at some stage of the proceedings subsequent to the seizure, the distress is irregular. Since the passing of the Judicature Acts, these distinctions are of much less importance than they used to be; for now, in every case of wrongful distress, the writ may be simple endorsed. "The plaintiff's claim is for damages for improper distraining. "(Adkin's Landlord and Tenant, p. 126)

DEF

Joinder of defendants solely to obtain venue in a jurisdiction in which the action could not otherwise be tried.

CONT

The party claiming pretensive joinder bears the burdens of persuasion and proof. There are two tests for pretensive joinder. Under the first, joinder is pretensive if the petition on its face fails to state a claim against the joined defendant. Under the second, joinder is pretensive if there is, in fact, no cause of action against the joined defendant, even though the petition on its face states a cause of action.
