Waddell v. Bruen

Waddell v. Bruen
New York Court of Chancery · Decided January 28, 1846
4 Edw. Ch. 671

Counsel

Mr. Bidwell, for the motion., Mr. Ellingwood and Mr. G. Wood, opposed.

Waddell v. Bruen

Opinion of the Court

The Vice-Chancellor :

The bill, on its face, shows a clear case enough for equitable relief. But the material allegations are only on the complainant’s information and belief. They are not such allegations, therefore, as entitle the complainants to a preliminary injunction. Nor is such an injunction essential in order to secure the complainants in theix rights. The filing of a lis pendens will answer all the purposes of the injunction granted in limine : Osborn v. Taylor, 5 Paige’s C. R. 515.

Injunction dissolved. Costs may abide the event.
