Bassett v. Loewenstein

49 A. 97, 23 R.I. 41, 1901 R.I. LEXIS 80
Supreme Court of Rhode Island·Decided May 24, 1901·Published

Opinion

Per Curiam.

(1) Ball v. Ball, 21 R. I. 90, was a probate appeal in which it was held that under that part of Gen. Laws cap. 251, § 3, relating to “cases decided by any probate court or town council, wherein the party shall have neglected to prosecute his appeal according to law,” thereby necessarily implying a mistake in procedure, a new trial could be granted. This case is not a probate appeal, and therefore that decision is not applicable. Gen. Laws cap. 251, § 2, relates simply tó a mistake, having no reference to a neglect to prosecute an appeal according to law.

The petition for a reargument is denied.
