Court of Appeals of South Carolina, 1802

Mackay v. Reynolds

Mackay v. Reynolds
Court of Appeals of South Carolina · Decided July 1, 1802
2 S.C.L. 474

Mackay v. Reynolds

Opinion of the Court

When, after argument, all the other Judges were of opinion, that the verdict should be set aside, and a new trial granted, as a man had a right to offer as many titles to land as he pleased, and should not be restricted to one only ; for, if one fails him, the other may bear him out: nay, further, if they should ail fail him, he may resort to and depend upon his possessory right alone.

Rule for new trial made absolute.

All the Judges present.
