McCormick v. Cleveland
McCormick v. Cleveland
Opinion of the Court
Appellee, Mrs. Louise Hardin Cleveland, instituted this suit against T. N. McCormick, H. H. McCormick, and H. Cohn to recover the title and possession of a part of the one-third of a league of land granted to Charles L. Cleveland, assignee of John I. Booth, situated in Liberty county.
Defendant T. N. McCormick answered, pleading the statute of limitation of 10 years and suggestions of permanent and valuable improvements, made by him in good faith, which enhanced the value of the land. The defendants H. H. McCormick and H. Cohn answered, disclaiming any interest in or title to the land in controversy, and as to them judgment was rendered on their disclaimers in favor of plaintiff for the land.
*699 The case as between the plaintiff and the ■defendant T. N. McCormick was tried before the court, without a jury, and resulted in a judgment for plaintiff for the land in controversy, and denying to defendant a recovery for the value of the improvements made by him thereon.
The court, at the request of the defendant, filed its written findings of fact and conclusions of law, and the appellant’s assignments of error attack the court’s fact findings as being unsupported by the evidence.
We find no reversible error in the record, and the judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
Affirmed.
