Shaeffer v. Matzen

Shaeffer v. Matzen, 2 Cal. Unrep. 271 (Cal. 1884)
3 P. 95

Shaeffer v. Matzen

Opinion of the Court

By the COURT.

The defendant Stillinger does not appear to have had any claim to the demanded premises beyond what his naked possession gave him; and at the time of the commencement of this action the plaintiff had the legal title, and was entitled to the possession of said premises. This is sufficiently apparent, although somewhat obscured by the finding of a great number of irrelevant facts.

Judgment affirmed.
