<p>Sales — Conditional Sales — Retention of Title.</p> <p>A so-called conditional sale, or sale by which the vendee is to become at once unconditionally bound for the price, and the vendor is to continue to be owner of the property until the price is paid, is not possible under the laws of this state. A petition wherein the vendor under such a contract claims the ownership of the property sold shows no cause of action.</p> <p>[Ed. Note. — For cases in point, see Cent. Dig. vol. 43, Sales, §§ 1336-1352.]</p> <p>(Syllabus by the Court.)</p>
