Leach v. Jones
Supreme Court of Rhode Island
Petition in equity to correct a final decree in partition.
1Opinion of the CourtPotter, J.
This petition was filed November 19, 1875, and asks to correct a decree entered by consent in this court, August 4, 1874, being the 71st day of the March Term, A. D. 1874, establishing a partition between Thomas Leach, complainant, and William E. Jones, respondent, the petitioner. The ground is that the report of the commissioners was erroneous, and does not set out to the parties the shares of land which the decree for partition made July 18, 1874, had declared them entitled to, and the petition asks that this final decree be reformed and corrected so as to conform to the previous decree.
