Shirk v. Konigmacher
Shirk v. Konigmacher
Opinion of the Court
On November 27, 1889, the plaintiff sold and delivered to Henry Musser eleven fat hogs. On the following Thursday (December 3,1889), Musser confessed a judgment to Charles Konigmacher, upon which the latter forthwith issued an execution and levied on the hogs and other property of Musser. The plaintiff claimed them, and upon the sheriff’s petition for an interpleader an issue was awarded to try the title. The question is whether the plaintiff had a right to rescind the sale, and retake possession of the hogs after they had been levied on as the property of Musser. This question will be sufficiently answered when we say that there is not the slightest evidence that Musser resorted to any artifice, trick or deception to obtain possession of the hogs, or that he did not intend to pay for them as he promised to do, or that he made any representations as to
Judgment affirmed.
