Johnson v. Anderson

3 N.J.L. 983

Opinion

By the Court.

There is no legal consideration on which the promise can attach. If this was law, usury and oppression would take a wide range. The creditor, in most cases, suffers an inconvenience in case of the [717] want of punctuality in his debtor; he cannot, however, recover more than the debt, interest and costs; nor will a promise to pay more, help his case.

Judgment reversed.
