Coit v. Skinner

7 Cow. 401 | N.Y. Sup. Ct. | 1827

Curia.

It has often been held, that a plea of the statute of limitations will not be received, as a matter of favor, by way of amendment, after the period of pleading it as matter of right has elapsed. It must be pleaded in the first instance. (1 Archb. Pr. 124; 2 Wils. 253.)

Motion denied.
