Syllabus

The burden of proof ordinarily rests with the party who possesses the facts on the issue in dispute. Since entities and persons are unable to guaranty their own debts, courts will not construe guaranties signed in both a representative and individual capacity as constituting a guaranty by the entity involved because to do so would render the guaranty a nullity. Parol evidence is not admissible to contradict unambiguous terms of a written agreement. Good consideration for a contract is any benefit conferred or detriment suffered.
