Supreme Court of Pennsylvania · Decided May 18, 1903 · Brown, Dean, Fell, Mesteezat, Mitchell
206 Pa. 272; 55 A. 976; 1903 Pa. LEXIS 697

Bowman v. Knorr

Opinion of the Court

Opinion by

Mr. Justice Fell,

The appellant is the assignee of a judgment obtained on an action against an executrix which was commenced more than five years after the death of the decedent. As the debt was not a lien on the real estate from the sale of which the fund arose, the auditor was right in disallowing the claim.

The decree confirming the auditor’s report on this subject is affirmed.
