Black v. Tompkins

Black v. Tompkins
Supreme Court of Arkansas · Decided February 27, 1897
63 Ark. 502; 39 S.W. 553; 1897 Ark. LEXIS 135

Black v. Tompkins

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

The question of law involved in this action was decided in Reeve v. Ladies' Building Association, 56 Ark. 335, and Taylor v. Van Buren Building Association, ib. 340. According to the opinion in those cases, there was and is no usury in the contracts sued on.

The decree of the chancery court is therefore reversed, and the cause is remanded, with instructions to the court to foreclose the mortgage sued on; ascertaining the amount due thereon according to the rule stated in Roberts v. American Building & Loan Association, 62 Ark. 572.
