Halmes v. Dovey
Halmes v. Dovey
Opinion of the Court
This ivas an action in the district court for Cass county, the purpose of which ivas to compel the defendant Dovey to execute an alleged agreement for the release of certain lands from the operation of a judgment previously recovered by him against one Thomas, the plaintiff’s grantor. A final hearing in the district court resulted in' a finding and decree adverse to the plaintiff’s contention, and from which an appeal has been prosecuted in this court.
Appellant frankly concedes that the evidence, so far as it relates to the principal question at issue, viz., the agreement alleged as the foundation of the action, is conflicting and irreconcilable, but seeks to prove that the finding is so decidedly against the weight of the evidence as to require a reversal of the decree upon that ground,
Decree affirmed.
