Crow v. Cann

43 A. 839, 18 Del. 208, 2 Penne. 208, 1899 Del. LEXIS 31

Opinion

Lore, C. J.:

The exceptions are fatal. The statute (Rev. Code, Chap. 101, See. 6, p. 770) is mandatory, and prescribes in terms what the judgment shall be; that is, that the plaintiff shall have judgment for the possession of the premises, and for his costs. The verdict is in direct violation of the provisions of that statute.

The judgment below is reversed.
