Newbold v. Ridgeway & Newbold
Supreme Court of Delaware · Decided June 15, 1832
1 Del. 55

Newbold v. Ridgeway & Newbold

Opinion of the Court

An objection has been made for want of proper parties, John New-bold the other tenant in common, not being included. This question was settled in the court below on demurrer. This proceeding is only for dower out of that particular part of the land of Barzilla Newbold, that was assigned to Anthony T. Newbold.

The general principles of the doctrine I have advanced are not denied as applicable at law, and equity follows the law.

The decree of the Court of Chancery was affirmed.
