Syllabus

<p>1. Services as attorney—whether compensation can be recovered for, without license to practice. Where a party, representing himself to be an attorney, was employed by another as such, and it appeared he had no license to practice as an attorney, and in all he did acted as a regularly licensed attorney, it was held, he could not recover for the services so rendered.</p> <p>2. Allegations and proofs—in action against several. In an action ex contractu against several, there can be no recovery unless a joint promise or liability is proved.</p>
