Currie v. Martin

Court of Appeals of Virginia

Decided October 29, 1802

Court of Appeals of Virginia · decided 1802-10-29

Martin, on the 28th May, 1798, filed a caveat ag-ainst a patent to Currie, as as-signee of Henry Banks, on a survey of 2,225 acres of land in Harrison county, dated 30th November, 1797; part of a warrant for 58,400 acres entered the 11th of May, 1784: 1. Because the entry does not express the date and number of the warrant. 2. Because the warrant did not exist at the time of the entry, 3. Because the entry was not special enough. 4.

Decided 1802-10-29

LYONS, Judge.

¶1Afterwards delivered the resolution of the Court; that Martin the appellee shewed no title to the warrant under which the survey was made, as it did not appear that it had ever been assigned to him; and, therefore, that the judgment of the District Court was to be reversed, and the caveat dismissed with costs.
