Lopes v. Brito

Opinion of the Court, by

Preston, J.

This is an appeal from the decision of the Chief Justice sitting in Chambers as the Intermediary Court for the Island of Oahu.

The facts of the case and the arguments of counsel are sufficiently set out in the decision appealed from.

On a consideration of such decision and of the facts, we are of opinion that the Chief Justice was correct in holding that the transaction between these parties was not a bailment, but a contract for the breach of which an action of assumpsit will lie. The decision appealed from is therefore affirmed with costs.
