Rochester v. Indiana County Gas Co.
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania · Decided October 26, 1914 · Brown, Elkin, Fell, Mestrezat, Potter
246 Pa. 571; 92 A. 717; 1914 Pa. LEXIS 559

Rochester v. Indiana County Gas Co.

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam,

This appeal is from an order directing the issuing of a mandamus requiring the officers of the defendant company to produce certain books, papers and accounts for the inspection of the petitioner, a stockholder. The question whether a proper demand had been made by the petitioner was decided in his favor by a special verdict and his right to inspect is clearly sustained by the opinion of Judge Ryan, specially presiding, upon motion for a peremptory mandamus, on which we affirm the order appealed from.

Order affirmed at the cost of the appellants.
