Description
In the present action the appellants, Francis and Evelyn Morris, have sought to establish ownership of a 100.5-acre tract of land unencumbered by a reservation of the mineral interest therein held by former grantors in the chain of title. The matters concerned have been before this court in earlier proceedings styled Morris v. Mayden (1976), 35 Ill. App.3d 338, 341 N.E.2d 428, appeal denied (1976), 63 Ill.2d 552, hereinafter referred to as Morris I. Appellants seek to determine whether the present litigation, instituted by complaint on November 23, 1976, is barred under the doctrine of res judicata due to the earlier proceedings. The appellee, Union Oil Company of California, has filed a cross-appeal questioning the propriety of the circuit court's action vacating a prior dismissal of this suit which action made possible the present appeal. We affirm the decision of the circuit court.
