Duryea v. Andrews
12 N.Y.S. 42
N.Y. Sup. Ct.1890Check TreatmentThe judgment in this action must be affirmed. The only defense interposed was that of the statute of limitations, and that statute did not begin to run until the demand for the delivery of the horse in question was made on December 10, 1889. The horse having been stolen, its possession until such demand was, in contemplation of law, in the plaintiff, as he was its legal owner.
