Keenan v. Dorflinger

19 How. Pr. 153 | N.Y. Sup. Ct. | 1859

Clerke, Justice,

held that the lien of the attorney for his compensation attached to the claim itself, and existed from the commencement of the action to judgment, and that the taxable costs were prima facie the measure of such compensation.

Motion denied as applied for ; but an order of discontinuance granted, upon payment of the taxable costs to plaintiff’s attorney.
