Doyle v. Donovan
Doyle v. Donovan
Opinion of the Court
The burden of proof is upon the plaintiff in fi. fa. at the opening of a claim case, and where this burden continued, and the claimant did nothing, either by admissions or otherwise to relieve the plaintiff of the burden, the plaintiff should have been allowed to open and conclude the argument before the jury.
(a) The burden being on the plaintiffvin fi. fa. to show the property levied on subject, it is unfortunate for the practice in claim cases
2. Whether a claimant of property had notice of an unrecorded mortgage or not, is a question of fact, and the evidence being sufficient to warrant the finding, this court will not interfere.
(a) There is no error in the several rulings of the court complain■ed of.
Judgment affirmed.
