Gudgell v. Pettigrew

The bill alleged Pettigrew and Gudgell formed a partnership with no time limit, investing $1,482.96 and $900, respectively. After several changes in partnership, disputes arose over debts, collections, and property sales. Arbitrators awarded Pettigrew & Co. $518, plus costs. Gudgell was to pay two judgments and cancel a property sale. The court confirmed the award, decreeing payments within specified time frames. Despite objections, the court found the decree and award conclusive, affirming them.
