Syllabus

<p>Pleading—Demurrer—Conclusions. Since a demurrer admits only the matters well pleaded, a conclusion in a complaint that property was assessed to meet the cost of a trunk sewer is not admitted by demurrer, where, from the resolution and ordinance attached to and made a part of the complaint, it appears that the assessment was for a storm water drainage fronting the property.</p> <p>Municipal Corporations-—Local Improvements — Assessments— Objections—Estoppel—Action to Set Aside—Jurisdiction. Under 3 Rem. & Bal. Code, § 7892-23, providing that an assessment for a local improvement shall be conclusive and cannot be contested in any manner by any person not filing written objections within the time provided and not appealing from the confirmation of the assessment, the superior court has no jurisdiction of an action to set aside an assessment where no objections were filed and the case did not fall within any of the exceptions provided in the act.</p>
