Knox v. Johnson
New York Supreme Court · Decided November 15, 1894
33 N.Y.S. 1129; 66 N.Y. St. Rep. 870 (New York Supplement)
Knox v. Johnson

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We are of the opinion that the court erred in receiving evidence that the credit was given to defendant. A majority of the court are of the opinion that the court erred in charging that a recovery could be had upon the letter and the standard mortgage clause, and that they amount to a contract between the parties, so that the nlaintiff was entitled to recover the premium on demand. Judgment and order reversed, and new trial ordered, with costs to abide the event.
