Fullan v. Hooper
New York Supreme Court
Motion to vacate an injunction restraining the enforcement of a judgment in an action for a perpetual injunction.
1Opinion of the CourtPotter, J.
This is a motion to set aside an injunction granted in this action to restrain the defendant from enforcing a judgment which this defendant obtained against the plaintiff in 1871. The motion must be granted upon three grounds :
First. The plaintiff has a remedy at law (Savage agt. Allen, 54 N. Y., 458, and the cases there cited). The defect here complained of is that the summons was not served in the action in which the judgment was obtained. If such was the case the judgment would be set aside upon motion. That is perhaps the reason that no case is found when an action was brought in equity…
