Decided April 27, 1875

Michigan Supreme Court · decided 1875-04-27

Appeal In Chancery from Jaclcson Circuit. This was a bill for partition. The defendants appear from the bill to claim interests which are distinct in separate parcels of the land' of • which partition is sought. The bill also discloses that persons not made parties have like interests jn the-lands with those which the -complainant claims to hold.

Decided 1875-04-27

Per Curiam:

¶1The .court below dismissed the bill on demurrer, and complainant appealed.

¶2*43The decree was proper. The bill attempted to bring' into question and have adjudicated distinct and discordant interests, and was liable to complaint for multifariousness. Besides, on the theory on which it proceeded, it was defective' for want of parties.

¶3Other objections do not require to be noticed.

¶4The decree should be affirmed, with costs.
