Ward v. Wilkie

Opinion of the Court

By the Court. — This

judgment must be reversed. The action should have been brought in the name of Thomas Marshall, to whom the debt was due. If the plaintiffs were really attorneys for Thomas Marshall, they should have appeared for him; but had no right of action in themselves.

Judgment reversed.
