Israel v. Israel

Israel v. Israel
U.S. Circuit Court for the District of Eastern Pennsylvania · Decided February 6, 1905 · Holland
134 F. 1023; 1905 U.S. App. LEXIS 5092
Israel v. Israel

Opinion of the Court

HOLLAND, District Judge.

The motion for judgment for want of a sufficient affidavit of defense cannot be sustained. The defense set up in the affidavit raises issues of fact which should be submitted to a jury, and, if proven to the satisfaction of the jury, the defendant may be entitled to a verdict, and the questions of law which must be considered by the court can be passed upon more intelligently after a full discovery of all the facts. Motion for judgment for want of a sufficient affidavit of defense is overruled.
