Bodley v. Hord

Court of Appeals of Kentucky

Decided April 25, 1820Published

On an appeal from a judgment of the Mason circuit court.

1Opinion of the Court

Judge Owsley

delivered the opinion of the court.

According to the case of Allen against Robinson, 3 Bibb, 326, and of the correctness of which we still entertain no doubt, the circuit court correctly decided, that the deed of the register to Hord, purporting to have been made for the sale of land for taxes, implies, prima facie, a compliance with the requisitions of the laws under which the law was sold, and the deed executed.

The judgment must be affirmed with cost.
