Pusey v. Peck

Illinois Supreme Court

Decided January 15, 1873

Illinois Supreme Court · decided 1873-01-15

Thomas F. Tipton, Judge, presiding. This was an action of assumpsit, upon a promissory note by Philo W. Peek against Parker C. Pusey. The defendant pleaded twojspecial pleas.

Decided 1873-01-15

Per Curiam :

¶1The demurrer was properly sustained to the defendant’s special pleas. They attempted to vary the effect of a written contract by showing a different verbal agreement- made at the same time. As pleas of set-off, they are bad in not showing how the alleged indebtedness accrued.

¶2Judgment affirmed.
