Description
The plaintiffs Elmer and Cleon Martinson, who did business as Martinson Brothers Logging Company, brought an action to recover funds retained by the defendant, Publishers Forest Products Company, as a cash bond to guarantee the performance of a logging contract and other funds retained to assure construction of a spur road on the logging location. The plaintiffs claimed they partly performed the contract and then ceased performance at the request of the defendant. The defendant cross claimed alleging that the plaintiffs failed to construct roads pursuant to the contract, that the defendant never requested the plaintiffs to stop logging and that because of the plaintiffs' breach of the contract, the defendant was damaged substantially. Judgment was entered for the plaintiffs for the return of the withheld funds, and the cross claim of the defendant was dismissed. The defendant has appealed claiming the trial court erred in the entry of certain findings of fact and conclusions of law, in dismissing the defendant's cross claim and in denying the motion to dismiss the plaintiffs' case on the ground that the plaintiffs were contractors and were not licensed under RCW 18.27.
