Phillips v. Clark

Phillips v. Clark
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania · Decided January 3, 1887
4 Sadler 425

Phillips v. Clark

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam:

This case was properly disposed of in the court below. When Phillips took the equity of Ross, he took it charged with the annuity of Mary Clark; and as by this act the equity was merged in the legal estate, the charge was thereby necessarily fixed upon the latter, and the representatives of Phillips cannot now be heard to complain of a result produced by their principal.

*430Decree affirmed and appeal dismissed, at the costs of the appellants.
