New York Supreme Court · Decided February 15, 1824
2 Cow. 496

Counsel

J. C. Clark, for the motion., H. Welles, contra.

Harrower v. Betts

Opinion of the Court

Curia.

It seems that the plaintiff would be allowed to retain the venue, on such a stipulation, though the defendant have the greater number of witnesses in the county to which he moves to change it. (Worthy v. Gilbert, 4 John. Rep. 492.) But the defendant has no right to change the venue upon stipulating to pay the expense of the plaintiff’s witnesses.

Motion denied.
