73 Cal. 271; 14 P. 863; 1887 Cal. LEXIS 655

Grupe v. Byers

Opinion of the Court

The Court.

—We are of opinion that the deed to the wife, executed by the husband after the decree of divorce in this case, was a valid one, and conveyed all the interest of the grantor.

The mortgage of the wife was therefore valid, and the plaintiff (mortgagee) is entitled to a judgment of foreclosure.

The portion of the judgment appealed from is reversed, and the cause remanded for a new trial; and on such new trial, the views above expressed are to be followed.

Ordered accordingly.
