Store Account of $22.43 Results Into Damage Suit Gilbert Carroll, of Lake View, filed suit in district court last week against E. Reardon, also of Lake View, claiming damages of $110 and costs of action stating that said damages were sustained as a result of the action Reardon commenced against Carroll on April 18 of this year for a store account of $22.43. Carroll claims the action was started in the Justice Court of D. J. Wright of Lake View; that a writ of attachment was issued from this court and attachment was made on Carroll's 1930 Chevrolet truck. Carroll claims the attachment was wrongful as the defendant had no reason to believe he had grounds for such attachment and claims the attachment was far in excess to the amount of judgment in compliance with the state laws. Carroll claims he was willfully and maliciously sued by Reardon and damaged to the amount of $110 and costs. This amount is mostly accounted for in the petition by expenses incurred by releasing the attached property, legal costs of obtaining a constable notice, an affidavit that property was exempt as provided by law.
