Supreme Court of Alabama, 1844

Starke v. Hill

Starke v. Hill
Supreme Court of Alabama · Decided June 15, 1844 · Coldthwaite
6 Ala. 785

Starke v. Hill

Opinion of the Court

COLDTHWAITE, J.

This case presents substantially the same facts as those upon which the decision in Cullum v. Branch *787Bank at Mobile, [4 Ala. Rep. 21,] was founded. That determines that the acceptance of a deed with warranty, prevents the purchaser from setting up either fraud or failure of consideration at law, in defence of a note given for the purchase of land. And also, that a court of equity is the proper forum to apply for relief, when it is wished to rescind the contract.

Judgment affirmed.
