Commissioners of the Treasury v. Mayrant

Supreme Court of South Carolina
Commissioners of the Treasury v. Mayrant, 4 S.C.L. 228 (S.C. 1807)
Watxes

Commissioners of the Treasury v. Mayrant

Opinion of the Court

Watxes, J.,

declared the resolution of the whole court, Treze-vant, J., absent, sick. That the verdict was wrong by reason of the interest which the jury had allowed, since it did not appear that the sheriff had been called upon for the money. But without this the verdict was legally conect, for the doctrine upon which it was founded, as laid down by the presiding judge at the trial, was perfectly reasonable and legal.
