Parker v. Parker

Supreme Court of Alabama

Decided November 15, 1889

Supreme Court of Alabama · decided 1889-11-15

Heard before the Hon. H. A. Sharpe. The bill in this case was filed on the 9th July, 1887, by James E. Parker and wife, against Martin Parker and wife; and sought the reformation of a conveyance of a tract of land, executed to the complainants by the defendants, on the ground that the land intended to be conveyed was not correctly described in the deed.

Relies on Evans v. English · Pollak & Co. v. Graves

Decided 1889-11-15

McCLELLAN, J.

¶1The contention of appellants, that under the law of force prior to the act of February 28, 1887, a married woman, being joined therein by her husband, could not convey property belonging to her statutory separate estate, in exchange for and in consideration of other property, is unsound. — Evans v. English, 61 Ala. 416; Pollak v. Graves, 72 Ala. 350.

¶2In all other respects, this case is identical with that of these appellants against John D. Parker, decided adversely to them at this term; and the decree of the City Court is affirmed, on the authority of that case.

¶3Affirmed.
