Portsmouth v. New Hampshire National Bank

Portsmouth v. New Hampshire National Bank
Supreme Court of New Hampshire · Decided May 7, 1912 · Young
83 A. 459; 76 N.H. 577; 1912 N.H. LEXIS 95

Portsmouth v. New Hampshire National Bank

Opinion of the Court

Young, J.

The city solicitor has no standing in this case, for he is not acting for the city, but in defiance of its wishes; that is, he is here, not for the purpose of doing what the city instructed him to do, but to prevent the city from doing it.

Exception overruled.

All concurred.
