Grammer v. Carroll

Opinion of the Court

But the Court said, that in this Court, the jury had always been allowed to give damages for the non-performance of the contract; and that it was competent for them to make the interest the measure of their damages; and that interest may be recovered on money received to the plaintiff’s use, after demand and refusal to pay.

Upon the plaintiff’s remitting the cost of protest, the Court refused to grant a new trial.
