Carroll Brick Co. v. Gable

Opinion of the Court

DENNIS, J.

In this case, I am of the opinion:

1st. That the plaintiffs are estopped from claiming a lien upon the reversion.

2d. That they are entitled to claim a lien upon the leasehold, because Stirling must be considered as agent of Gable, and they are not bound by the unrecorded declaration of trust in favor of Mrs. Gable.

I will sign a decree therefore for the sale of the leasehold interest, unless the amount of the lien claim is paid into Court by a day to be fixed by the decree.
