Isaacs v. Mutual Reserve Fund Life Ass'n
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania · Decided January 30, 1899 · Fell, Green, McCollum, Mitchell, Sterrett
189 Pa. 610; 42 A. 295; 1899 Pa. LEXIS 705

Isaacs v. Mutual Reserve Fund Life Ass'n

Opinion of the Court

Per, Curiam,

The learned court below was clearly right in refusing to enter judgment against the defendant in this case for want of a sufficient affidavit of defense. Much valuable time is frequently lost in taking appeals in cases similar to this. Unless the court below is clearly wrong, it is much better to forthwith proceed to trial therein.

Appeal dismissed, at appellant’s costs, without prejudice, etc.
