Description
Appellants, husband and wife, brought this suit in equity against the appellee to cancel a mineral deed to 20 acres of oil royalty in McClain County, Oklahoma, and for an accounting of the rents and profits derived therefrom. Jurisdiction is based upon diversity of citizenship and requisite amount in controversy, and the suit is grounded upon the alleged breach of a confidential relationship which, it is contended, voided the transaction. At the conclusion of the plaintiffs case, the court sustained a motion to dismiss, and entered judgment for the defendant on the grounds that the evidence failed to show an actionable confidential relationship, and if so, the resulting cause of action was barred by the statute of limitations.
