Low v. Independent Christian Society

Supreme Court of New Hampshire
Low v. Independent Christian Society, 32 A. 762 (N.H. 1893)
67 N.H. 488
Chase, Carpenter

Low v. Independent Christian Society

Opinion of the Court

Chase, J.

The specifications show that several matters of account are included in the action. If they are so numerous and complicated that they cannot be intelligently investigated and adjusted in a jury trial, the parties are not entitled to such a trial, and the case may be referred without their consent. Sargent v. Putnam, 58 N. H. 182; Davis v. Dyer, 62 N. H. 231. Whether they are so is a question of fact that was decided in the affirmative at the trial term. The order of reference necessarily involved a decision of this question. It is not subject to review here. Dole v. Pike, 64 N. H. 22.

Case discharged.

Carpenter, J., did not sit: the others concurred.
