51 Cal. 573

Jefferson v. Wendt

Opinion of the Court

By the Court:

The court below held that the Statute of Limitations had operated a bar to the plaintiff’s claim. This was put upon the ground that in 1865 or 18.66 there was a delivery of the sheriff’s deed to the plaintiff. But it is apparent that no deed was delivered to the plaintiff until June, 1873, and the action was commenced in 1874. .

Judgment reversed and cause remanded for a new trial. Remittitur forthwith.
