M'dermott v. Kennedy

charging: That if a man orders another out of his house, he is bound to go; and, if he refuses, the owner or occupant of the house has a right to put him out, and to use the force necessary for that purpose. That though in a criminal proceeding a party is not answerable for a mere accident, yet a trespasser is liable in a civil action, for accidents arising from his improper conduct, except such as are inevitable.

Verdict for plaintiff $35 44.
