Mayer v. Louis

Opinion of the Court

Ingraham, J.

The defense demurred to is bad, because it does not show that the contract was governed by the laws of Ohio, or made to be performed in that State.

• By section 326 of the Code, the laws of a foreign State may be read from the published volume of the laws. The law cited by the plaintiff shows that the rate of interest charged is allowed by that State.

Judgment for plaintiff, on demurrer.
