Lapham v. Almy
105 Mass. 391
Mass.1870Check TreatmentThe plaintiff does not deny that the general rule is that a plaintiff against whom a judgment is rendered is liable to the defendant for costs. But he contends that he is exempt, because he has inserted in the writ a statement that he “ sues in his own right but with the intent to benefit Frederick Slocum.” This allegation, even if proved to be true, does not, however, make Slocum liable, nor does it relieve the plaintiff.
Taxation affirmed.
