App. 2d 350, a plaintiff mistakenly sued Coca Cola Bottling Company of Sacramento, Ltd., a corporation, instead of Coca Cola Bottling Company of Sacramento, a partnership. The court held that the plaintiff should be allowed to substitute the correct name on grounds of mistake and because of misleading defense tactics.
