1905In recognition of this principle we have numerous statutes which forbid the doing of certain acts embraced in tbe same section, •which in fact create several offenses in the alternative, and it has been uniformly ruled by this court that where such acts are not repugnant to each other or inconsistent, all of them may be charged conjunctively in the indictment or information charging the offense created by the section. [State v. Fancher, 71 Mo. 460 ; State v. Murphy, 47 Mo. 274 ; State v. Connelly, 73 Mo. 235 .] So upon the same principle the information in this case correctly charges conjuncti

1883This objection is answered by the case of the State v. Fancher, 71 Mo. 460 , where an indictment founded on the same statute as the one in this case, and to which the same objections here made were interposed, was held to be sufficient. 4. evidence :prac-. court!n supreme It appears from the record that defendant represented to the prosecuting witness, who had some apples in his-wagon for sale, that he was authorized to p,Uy supplies for the Laclede hotel in the city of St.

1884Such is the import of Fox v. Hall, supra. The deeds themselves are not in the record.

1882That this defendant is not subject to any equities affecting the land, which may have existed between these plaiutiffs and Dr. Hoffman, is settled by the decisions of the supreme court in Fox v. Hall ( 74 Mo. 315 ) and Willingham v. Hardin ( 75 Mo. 429 ), where it is held that a purchaser in good faith for a valuable consideration, acquires a title which is unaffected by a prior unrecorded deed of which he had no notice, although the conveyance to him is by a quit-claim deed only.

1986The trial court, nevertheless, on the premise that Paddock v. Somes, 102 Mo. 226 , 14 S.W. 746 (1890) removes the nuisance tort from the operation of the rule of mitigation, rejected a tender of proof that the Fletchers, by the insertion of a back-flow valve between the lateral and the main, could have prevented the entry of the sewer fluids into the basement, and hence the consequent damages.

1984United States v. Hamilton, supra; United States v. Parry, supra. The operation of the rule is not limited to situations where the declarant has been impeached by a prior inconsistent statement, United States v.

1979He would escape the operation of this rule, however, by analogy with a certain body of federal law that affords post-conviction relief where the new evidence is such as “[t]o undermine the entire structure of the [prosecution’s] case,” Kelly v. Ragen, 129 F.2d 811, 813 (7th Cir.1942), and it reveals “a wrong so fundamental that it made the whole proceeding a mere pretense of a trial,” Brown v. Mississippi, 297 U.S. 278, 286 , 56 S.Ct. 461, 465 , 80 L.Ed. 682 (1936).

As noted above, the Illinois Court relied upon the holdings of the United States Supreme Court, the Court of Appeals of Kentucky and of the District Court of Appeals, Third District of California for the conclusion that the exception of "treason, felony, breach of the peace", the parliamentary privilege from arrest enjoyed under the Constitution by members of the General Assembly, excludes all crimes from the operation of the privilege.

1976He points out that under Rule 81.06, a judgment entered by a court without a jury “of an entirely separate and independent claim unrelated to any other claims stated or joined in the case” shall be deemed a final judgment for the purpose of appeal; and he cites Hauser v. Hill, 510 S.W.2d 765 (Mo.App.1974) for the proposition that the dismissal of relator’s third party petition comes within the operation of that rule.

1967This holding is designed to avoid the operation of the rule stated in Castorina v. Herrmann, 340 Mo. 1026, 1032 , 104 S.W.2d 297, 300 , that the grant of a new trial on the' ground the verdict was against the weight of the evidence would be arbitrary if there was no evidence to weigh and in such cases the appellate court will determine whether or not there was substantial evidence to sustain a verdict for the party to whom the new trial was granted.

1966We so hold.” This again was a conclusion, not made on the basis of any precise findings of fact, and so brings the whole matter within the operation of the rule that “decisions of the commission which are clearly the interpretation or application of the law, as distinguished from a determination of facts, are not binding upon us and fall within our province of review and correction.” Williams v. Anderson Air Activities, Mo.App., 319 S.W.2d 61, 65-66 ; Merriman v. Ben Gutman Truck Service, Inc., Mo., 392 S.W.2d 292 .

1939Nor will a mere pretended dispute — a controversy not raised in .good faith — affect the operation of this rule of law. [Vaughn v. Conran (Mo. App.), 4 S. W. (2d) 495 , l. c. 496; Harms v. Fidelity & Casualty Co. of New York, 157 S. W. 1046 , l. c. 1049; Berry v. Detroit Casualty Co. (Mo. App.), 300 S. W. 1026 , l. c. 1028.] Furthermore, the question of whether or not there was a genuine good faith dispute as to liability must be determined in the light of the information in the possession of the defendant at the time of the settlement.
