Holt v. Rutherford
Plaintiffs acquired title to real property by way of a nonjudicial foreclosure.
Plaintiffs' complaint included causes of action for quiet title, to set aside an unlawful detainer judgment and damages. The trial court sustained defendants' demurrer to some, but not all, causes of action without leave to amend. Thereafter, plaintiffs dismissed their entire action without prejudice and appealed. While the appeal was pending, plaintiffs conveyed their interest in the subject real property to a third party.
We determine the judgment is final for the purposes of appeal. The conveyance of plaintiffs' interest in the subject property rendered the appeal moot concerning the causes of action relating to quiet title and unlawful detainer. Plaintiffs raise no substantive challenges to the court's rulings on the other causes of action. We affirm.
