Butler v. Kneeland

23 Ohio St. (N.S.) 196
Ohio Supreme Court·Decided December 15, 1872·Published

Opinion

By the Court.

The District Court did not err. The verdict finds all the issues for the plaintiffs. This is, in effect, a finding against the counter-claim. The $5.49 must therefore have been the whole amount allowed upon the claim of the plaintiffs. It follows that the ease is one in which the court had jurisdiction, for the reason that the plaintiffs demand more than one hundred dollars; but they are not entitled to costs, because they recovered less than one hundred.

Motion overruled.
