Washington Supreme Court February 21, 1913, No. 10686 (Schmidt v. Curtiss)

Mount, J.

This proceeding was brought in the lower court by the appellants, to substitute attorneys of record, and to require the attorneys previously employed to return to appellants $800 paid to them. The trial court, by consent of the parties, ordered the substitution, but, after a hearing upon the merits, refused to order a return of the money paid as a retainer. This appeal followed.
