Furgison v. Robinson

Furgison v. Robinson
New York Court of Chancery · Decided October 29, 1823
1 Hopk. Ch. 8

Counsel

Mr. RADCLIFF for defendants., Mr. Emmet for the complainants.

Furgison v. Robinson

Opinion of the Court

But by the court :

The neglect of the solicitor, is the neglect of his client. It can not be tolerated, that the complainant, after he has obtained an injunction, should prevent its dissolution by refusing or neglecting to deliver a copy of the bill. If the defendant appears, it is the duty of the complainant’s solicitor to serve him with a copy of the bill without delay.

For the neglect of the complainant to serve such copy in season, the injunction must be dissolved.

Order accordingly.
