79 Miss. 74

Hartman v. Moore

Opinion of the Court

Whitfield, C. J.,

delivered the opinion of the court.

Under the prayer for general relief, and the admissions in the answers, appellant was entitled to redeem from the senior mortgagee and subject the equity of redemption. The case made by the pleadings fully warranted this relief and the decree should have vindicated the case so made, under the prayer for general relief. The view taken by the court below was too technical.

Reversed and remanded.
