The Patapsco
Supreme Court of the United States
The Patapsco, 79 U.S. 451 (1871)
20 L. Ed. 457; 12 Wall. 451; 1870 U.S. LEXIS 1217
The Patapsco
Opinion
The decree of the Circuit Court was for the amount reported due the libellant on the 15th July, 1868, $1982, and interest from the date of the report. We think that interest to the date of the decree must be computed as a part of the sum for which the decree was rendered. The sum thus, computed exceeds $2000, and the motion must, therefore, be
Denied.
