Mallissee v. Keown
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania · Decided November 5, 1909 · Brown, Elkin, Fell, Mestrezat, Mitchell, Potter, Stewart
226 Pa. 74; 74 A. 1128; 1909 Pa. LEXIS 877

Mallissee v. Keown

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam,

The appellant’s title to retain possession was founded on his status as mortgagee, but the learned judge below having found that appellant was not in possession by virtue of the mortgage but as a tenant under an express contract of lease, the title set up in the bill was not made out and the bill was properly dismissed. We have not been convinced that the finding was erroneous.

Decree affirmed.
