Montgomery v. Harson

3 S.C.L. 480

Opinions

Sed per curiam.

(Grimke, Waties, and Brevard, Justices.)

Costs follow the judgment; but, as the debt was satisfied before judgment, the plaintiff is not intitled to judgment for the costs alone.The receipt of the money, in full satisfaction of the debt, discharges the defendant, and operates as a release of the action; and, consequently, each party must bear his own expenses of the suit.
