Michigan Supreme Court
Decided May 12, 1870PublishedCited by 1 opinion
Error to Monroe Circuit. This was an action of asmmpsit brought in the Circuit 'Court for the County of Monroe, by Maurice R. Stettheimer and others against Solomon Meverñeld and Henry Wolf, in which the plaintiffs below recovered a judgment. The assignments of error were of a general character; or, so far as they were specific, they were not sustained by the facts appearing on the record.
1Per curiam
The plaintiff in error making default, and the case having been evidently taken up merely for delay, the Court in affirming the judgment allowed an additional sum, amounting to the rate of 3 per cent, per annum, for the period between the verdict and affirmance, by way of penalty for the vexatious appeal.
