Hemingway v. Preston

Hemingway v. Preston
Michigan Court of Chancery · Decided March 15, 1845
1 Walk. Ch. 528

Counsel

Stevens,, R. Hosmer, contra.

Hemingway v. Preston

Opinion of the Court

The Chancellor.

The injunction does not require Preston to do any act, but to refrain from doing certain acts. It is wholly negative in its character, and was intended, as is manifest from its language, to prevent him from disturbing or molesting the actual possession or occupancy of complainant; and nothing more. It was not designed to dispossess defendant, or to turn him out of possession, and put complainant in.

Motion denied, with $5 costs to defendant.
