Johnson v. Stephens

FOSTER, Justice.

The widow and some of the heirs of W. F. Johnson, Sr., file this bill to have a tax sale of the land declared to have been caused by him to one of his sons, W. F, Johnson, Jr., with the intent to defraud the widow, then his wife, in respect to a claim then made by her for alimony in a pending suit, as well as a fraud upon the other children as his heirs at law, and do have the land sold for division as belonging to all his heirs, including the widow’s dower right.

The only question here involved is whether the bill is barred by limitations or laches as shown on its face.

Insofar…
