49 Mich. 394

Babbitt v. Calkins

Michigan Supreme Court

Decided October 31, 1882

Michigan Supreme Court · decided 1882-10-31

Trespass for cutting, carrying away, converting and disposing of certain trees to plaintiff’s damage $250.

Decided 1882-10-31

Marston, J.

¶1We discover no error in the record in this case. If the case had been submitted to a jury and a general verdict rendered, then the position taken would have force. The court however found the facts and that the plaintiff was entitled to recover under the second count of the declaration. This was proper and justified the court in rendering judgment for treble damages.

¶2The judgment must be affirmed with costs.

The other Justices concurred.
