Taylor v. Foote's Administrators

Ohio Supreme Court
Taylor v. Foote's Administrators, 1 Wright 356 (Ohio 1883)

Taylor v. Foote's Administrators

Opinion of the Court

BY THE COURT.

These notes, though not negotiable at law, so as to confer upon the assignee a right to sue in his own name, are held in equity as negotiated. The lien for the purchase money is a right of the vendor, and cannot pass into other hands as an incident to the obligation, or the land, if conveyed by the vendor; Jackman v. Hallock, 1 O. 319; and Tiernan v. Beane, 2 O. 383, are conclusive on this point; so is Williams v. Roberts, 5 O. 35.

The bill is dismissed.

[Vendor’s lien is valid without a decree; Martin v. Johnson, 7 O. 1st pt. 225, 226.]
