Cases

Songer v. Gallatin County

Justice(s):

Justice John D. Caton




Blue v. Leathers



Gold et ux. v. Ryan



Taylor v. Sprinkle

The Supreme Court upheld the demurrer on the fifth plea, arguing that it lacked sufficient detail in avoiding the obligation, rendering it insufficient. This plea relied on a statute introducing a new remedy, yet failed to meet the standards of common law. Consequently, the circuit court's decision was affirmed.
