Schlosser v. Creamer

We are here concerned with whether appellant, Henry W. Schlosser, Sr. (Schlosser), held title in land in Baltimore County sufficiently without doubt as to merchantability to justify his suit for damages against appellees, John J. Creamer and Frances E. Creamer, his wife, (the Creamers). On the basis of an alleged title defect they had declined to proceed under a contract to purchase. We shall reverse the judgment for costs entered in the Creamers’ favor by the trial judge who heard the case without a jury.

Schlosser contracted to sell to the Creamers a home at 1 Woodlawn Avenue in Catonsville.…
