Powers v. Sawyer

Supreme Judicial Court of Maine
Powers v. Sawyer, 46 Me. 160 (Me. 1858)
Appleton, Goodenow, Gutting, Rice, Tenney

Powers v. Sawyer

Opinion of the Court

It was held, that the special finding by the jury, that there was no conversion by the defendants, or either of them, obviated the error in refusing to give the requested instruction. The instructions given are correct. If there was no conversion, and the jury have so found, the giving the requested instruction would have been of no service to the plaintiff. (2 Greenl. Ev. § 647.) Exceptions overruled.

Tenney, C. J., and Rice, Appleton, Gutting, May, and Goodenow, J. J., concurred.
