Description
In the action in which the alleged false statement was used the plaintiff was seeking an accounting of the rentals collected by the bank on his property in Tucson, Arizona, during the years 1921 to 1924, and the recovery of a judgment for the sum he claimed such an accounting would show to be due him by the bank, something over $8,000. That action was tried in 1933 and at the hearing a check dated July 28, 1914, and drawn by Ackerman to the order of one Sam Hughes for $1,966, was shown the witness Hill, who was then asked concerning it by the attorney for the bank, whether or not the statement of Ackermans bank account which she held in her hand disclosed that on July 28, 1924, a check for $1,966 was withdrawn through the account, and to this Mrs. Hill answered, "Yes." The check was indorsed by Sam Hughes, Sr., and had written on it in the left-hand corner, "Paid in full for a lot on W. Congress Street." The plaintiff contends that the answer was not only false but corruptly, knowingly and feloniously so, and given to aid the bank, her employer, in avoiding its responsibility.
