Bergeron v. Forger
Supreme Court of Vermont
1Opinion of the CourtSmith, J.
This is an equity proceeding. The plaintiffs claim the right to take water from an aqueduct leading from a spring located on the lands of the plaintiffs, but admittedly owned jointly by the defendants. Plaintiffs claim they are entitled to the water (1) by virtue of a certain deed or license, and (2) by virtue of an oral license granted to them by the defendant, Paul A. Forger. Injunctive relief is sought against the defendants from interfering with the flow of water to the premises, as well as damages from the defendants as a consequence of their interference with plaintiffs’ water system.
