Wells v. Wilkins

Supreme Court of the United States·Decided May 10, 1886·Published·Cited by 2 cases

Opinion

Me. Chief Justice Waite

delivered the opinion of the court.

These motions are denied. The additional affidavits which have been filed failed to satisfy us that the value of the matter in dispute is sufficient to give us jurisdiction. While the aggregate of the values in all the suits may exceed $5000, it is clear to our minds that the value of the property involved in no one of the suits reaches that sum, or anything like it.

Denied.
