Keith v. Jones, 9 Johns. 120

Keith v. Jones

9 Johns. 120 | N.Y. Sup. Ct. | 1812

Per Curiam.

The first count in the declaration, and to which there is a general demurrer, is good. The note therein stated is a negotiable note, under the statute; and being declared to be paya* *121ble in York state bills or specie, is the same thing as being made payable in lawful current money of the state ; for the bills mentioned mean bank paper, which is here, in conformity with common usage and common understanding, regarded as cash.

Judgment for the plaintiff.
