Blanchard v. Neill

Emery, Y. C.

So far as I have examined the authorities cited by complainant on the right of a party to bring writ of error on a judgment in his own favor, they are all cases where the judgment was rendered, either for the plaintiff-appellant on his claim or the defendant (appellant) on his set-off, and the judgment was less than the amount appellant claimed he was entitled to. In such cases the appellant is clearly "aggrieved” by the judgment in his favor. Parker v. Newland (1841), 1 Hill 87; Ingalls v. Lord (1823), 1 Cow. 240; Johnson v. Jebb (1772), 3 Burr. 1772.
