Eaton v. Eaton
Eaton v. Eaton
Opinion of the Court
By the Court,
This suit was brought to reform a deed by compelling the grantors to affix a seal. It appears that the attempted conveyance was voluntary. It is well settled, that equity will not interfere to enforce a voluntary contract to convey. Smith vs. Wood, 12 Wis., 882. A defective attempt to make a voluntary conveyance stands upon the same grqund. Judicial tribunals act to enforce legal obligations, not to compel parties to carry into execution mere
The judgment is affirmed, with costs.
