Buchanan v. Crucible Steel Casting & Metal Co.

Opinion by

Judge Hargis:

In action 21454 the parties were properly before the court and the interest of Hawley correctly described in the petition as one-fourth and one-twelfth of the property decreed to be sold. The statement in the decree that he owned one-ninth instead of one-twelfth did not render it void nor prejudice his rights, -as the interest he actually owned passed under the decretal sale, and as a deed for more land than the grantor owns operates to convey so much as he can lawfully convey. Were this error it was voidable by appeal, which was not taken.

The suit 23206 was brought in…
