147 Ky. 738 | Ky. Ct. App. | 1912
Response to Petition for Rehearing by
For opinion in this case see page-141, Yol. 147.
1. We do not hold that the commissioner or mortgagee may make a dedication, of land as a street. Both the mortgagor and mortgagee were parties to the action. The court has power under section 694 of the Code to cause the land to be divided with suitable avenues, streets, etc. What we hold is that by the proceedings in the action to which both the mortgagor and mortgagee were parties, the land was dedicated as a street.
2. It is true that Mrs. Mix’s children filed a pleading praying that the property be sold, and the proceeds above the amount of the mortgage lien, distributed among them; but the balance of the mortgage debt is many times the value of the piece of land left unsold and the Mix children have no real interest in the controversy.
3. The words “Louisville & Nashville Railroad,” where they appear in the opinion, are used by mistake for the words “Southern Railway Company.”
4. Upon a reconsideration of the case we see no reason to change our conclusion as to the dedication of the property in the proceedings referred to.
Petition for rehearing overruled.
