Description
ROBINSON, J. -- In December, 1939, the parties to this action entered into a business arrangement involving the production, processing, and marketing of mustard seed. In carrying out the agreement, which was oral and somewhat informal, differences arose, with the result that, in January, 1942, Mr. Reif, the appellant here, brought this action for an accounting. Issues were made up, and the trial began on November 24th. The oral evidence introduced was supplemented by exhibits consisting of voluminous books of account, checks, and similar items. With the approval and consent of counsel for both parties, the court appointed a referee or auditor to audit the exhibits, and the trial was adjourned to await his report. Upon the resumption of the trial, the auditors report was submitted, and further oral testimony was taken. As the auditors report was long and complicated, the trial judge necessarily took the matter under advisement. On February 16, 1943, he entered the "Interlocutory Decree," from which this appeal purports to be taken.
