Scribner v. Bullitt

1 Blackf. 112, 1821 Ind. LEXIS 1

Opinion

HELD, that in assumpsit by the assignee against the assign- or of a promissory note, a special plea denying the assignment is bad, because it amounts to the general issue.

Held, also, that non-assumpsit may be pleaded in such a case, either with or without an oath; but that if the plea be not sworn to, the assignment is admitted (1).
