Bennett v. Taylor
5 Cal. 502 | Cal. | 1855
Heydenfeldt, J., concurred.
The Court below erred in permitting the plaintiff to introduce the mortgage in evidence, without first producing or accounting for the note.
The mortgage was a mere incident to the debt; and in order to maintain the action, which was founded on the plaintiff’s possession and the mortgage, the debt should have been proved.
In other respects, the rulings of the Court were correct, and the case properly tried.
Judgment reversed and new trial ordered.
