Low v. Hauel
U.S. Circuit Court for the District of Eastern Pennsylvania · Decided October 29, 1849 · Icane
15 F. Cas. 1010; 1 Wall. Jr. 345; 1849 U.S. App. LEXIS 419
Low v. Hauel

Opinion of the Court

ICANE, District Judge.

It is not usual, in this circuit, to insert a pecuniary penalty, though one is almost always found in the English forms. There was a ease here, some time since, where, a penalty being inserted, the matter was said to be misunderstood. The defendant, professing to understand it as an alternative, proceeded to violate the injunction, finding it more profitable. perhaps, to pay the penalty, than to desist from his work. Money penalty not inserted.
