Pennsylvania Court of Common Pleas, Washington County · decided 1792-01-15

BRACRENRIDGE asked the direction of the court to exhibit a judgment for a penalty, in evidence to a jury of enquiry, whether land will extend or not.

Decided 1792-01-15

President.

¶1This seems a strange motion. The seizure of land seems somewhat analogous to a payment or tender. The court will not suffer a plaintiff to receive more on a judgment, than is really due. And the question before the jury is, in what time the profits of the land will discharge the debt really due. But we give no direction either way.
