Beamont's Case

1 N.C. 708

Opinion

If the judgments were had by covin, he may traverse generally; but perhaps they were rightly obtained, and afterwards an agreement made to pay so much per month in satisfaction, etc.; in the meantime the judgments were kept on foot. In this case the keeping the judgments on foot is traversable, and the payment is only an inducement, and a matter of inducement is not traversable. Judgment was accordingly given for the plaintiff.
