In re Lane, 1 Edw. Ch. 349, 1832 N.Y. LEXIS 221, 1832 N.Y. Misc. LEXIS 16 (N.Y. 1832).
Opinion
I cannot interfere. The statute never contemplated a compulsive release of dower. It can only be released by consent. If the widow had refused, the court could not have compelled her; and, therefore, cannot compel her present husband to join with her in such a release.
Application denied.
