Prior History: Appeal from Superior Court, King County.Action to foreclose a mechanic's lien claimed by plaintiff upon a certain building in the city of Seattle, State of Washington, known as the Winehill building. The plaintiff was a subcontractor under the defendants Charles R. Brown and Isaac Percival, who were contractors with Gustave Winehill and Henrietta Winehill, the owners of said building, for the erection thereof. To the amended complaint in this action Gustave and Henrietta Winehill interposed separate demurrers, which were sustained, and plaintiff declining to plead further, judgments were rendered in favor of the defendants Gustave and Henrietta Winehill for their costs. Plaintiff appeals to this court.Mechanics’ Liens – Notice – Verification – Under § 1961, Code Wash. T., providing that the notice of mechanic’s lien shall contain a statement of the demand after deducting all just credits and offsets, and also a statement of the terms and conditions of the contract, a lien notice is defective which states that the work was performed and the material furnished under a subcontract, but which does not purport to contain a statement of the terms and conditions of the contract.In certifying the verification of a lien notice the notary must impress his official seal thereon, as such notice is not primarily intended for use in court, and is therefore not within the exception provided by § 5, Session Laws 1889-90, p.474.
