Pope v. Cox

STOCKARD, Commissioner.

By her petition, in two counts, plaintiff sought to quiet title to certain land in Taney County, Missouri, and to cancel and have declared void an option in favor of defendant to purchase plaintiff’s interest in the land. By his pleadings defendant sought specific performance of the option to purchase, and if successful to partition.
