1 Cai. Cas. 249

Jackson v. Stiles

New York Supreme Court

Decided August 15, 1803

New York Supreme Court · decided 1803-08-15

A TITLE to the premises in question had been awarded to the lessor of the plaintiff by the commissioners appointed to settle disputes to land, in the county of Onondago, and he had served declarations on the tenants, with the usual notices annexed.

Decided 1803-08-15

Emmott.

¶1Are the tenants to take notice of declarations which are mere nullities, void in themselves, and to which they are not parties ? They have not appeared, they are not in court, and John Stiles is the only defendant to the suit, that can be known by the record.

¶2Per curiam. Notice having been served on the tenants, it was enough to put them on enquiry. There is time enough for them to come in if they please. Take the effect of your motion.
