Carlton v. Hilliard

• 64 Fla. 228

Syllabus

<p>1. Where a demurrer is to the whole bill, special grounds there in that are not applicable to the whole bill will not be considered.</p> <p>2. Multifariousness goes to convenience more than to the merits; and when there is a general demurrer for want of equity, a ground of demurrer for multifariousness may not avail if there is equity in the bill.</p> <p>3. A bill is not multifarious because it seeks in a proper case to procure partition and an accounting.</p> <p>4. An accounting by one in possession of lands is a proper incident to the partition of the lands, while an injunction and a receiver are merely ancillary to the main purpose.</p>
