Description
The petitioner by this writ seeks an interpretation of the language used in Section 2 of Act 49 of the Acts of 1955, which
section is also 27-1135 of Arkansas Stats. Supp. For the purpose of this opinion the material part of the aforementioned reads
as follows: "The defense to any complaint or cross complaint must be filed the first day after the expiration of the periods
of time set forth below, as the case may be: First. Where the summons has been served 20 clays in any county in the State;"
On September 11, 1956, Lakeside School District No. 1 filed a complaint in the Pulaski Circuit Court, Second Division, against
the petitioner, J. E. Pyle, seeking damages in the amount of $1,500 for, allegedly, defective workmanship on a certain building.
The return on the summons issued against Pyle shows that it was served on September 13, 1956 in Pulaski County. On October 11, 1956 (no answer or other pleading having been filed by Pyle) the said School District was granted a default
judgment against the petitioner by the trial judge, sitting as a jury, in the amount of $1,385.
