Canan v. McCamy

Canan v. McCamy
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania · Decided November 7, 1881
1 Pennyp. 397

Canan v. McCamy

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam :

This was an appeal from the judgment of a justice of the peace. The declaration was in assumpsit in the common counts, with a special count — informally drawn — upon the warranty of a horse. It is not pretended there was any express warranty, but the plaintiff relied upon a representation alleged to be false and fraudulent. For that the proper action would be case for deceit, of which the justice had no jurisdiction.

Judgment affirmed.
