Ugarte v. Alvelo
Ugarte v. Alvelo
Opinion of the Court
The defendants, who were the losing parties in an action to enforce the right of accession, appealed to this Court from the judgment entered by the lower court granting the complaint in said suit. They contend in their brief that the lower court erred: (1) in fixing the sum of $900 as indemnity for the loss of the house and (2) in ordering, within the action to enforce the right of accession, the eviction of the defendants as if it were an action of unlawful detainer.
The first error concerns the weighing of the evidence. We are not in a position to substitute our views for those of the lower court which made the determination with respect to the proper indemnity pursuant to the evidence. We do not find manifest error in its weighing. Therefore, the first error is nonexistent.
The judgment will be affirmed.
