Rabberman v. Hause

Illinois Supreme Court

Decided June 15, 1878

Illinois Supreme Court · decided 1878-06-15

Clair county; the Hon. William H. Snyder, Judge, presiding. This was a bill in chancery, in the name of Valentine Rabberman as complainant, against John Hause, and Herman G. Weber, sheriff, to enjoin the collection of a judgment recovered in the St. Clair circuit court by said Hause against one Frederick Rabberman. The court dismissed the bill for want of equity, and Frederick Rabberman appealed from the order.

Decided 1878-06-15

Per Curiam :

¶1We see no cause to disturb the decree below.

¶2The judgment sought to be enjoined is against Frederick Rabberman, but the bill professes to be by Valentine Rabberman and is signed by him as counsel.

¶3It may be, as insisted by counsel, that this is but a slip of the pen by the draftsman, and that Frederick, and not Valentine, was intended. If so, it was a serious slip; it makes a .party complaining by one name to enjoin a judgment against a party of another Dame. And as the bill is before us, the court below was authorized to hold there was no equity in the bill.

¶4The decree is affirmed.

¶5Deoree affirmed.
