Miller v. Huntington & Ohio Bridge Co.

The majority opinion states that the questions arising herein fall into three main points: “ (1) Are the plaintiffs below entitled to maintain this suit; (2) has the county court legal authority to purchase and operate the bridge in question; and (3) if the power exists was the exercise thereof in this case tainted with such constructive or other fraud as will warrant us in voiding the sale and pur chase under investigation?” I shall endeavor to follow this outline in my note of dissent.

As to the first point, suffice it to say that I agree with the majority of the Court.

Coming to a discussion…
