Leiper v. Erwin

13 Tenn. 97 | Tenn. | 1833

Peck, J.

delivered the opinion of the court'.

The court erred when he instructed the jury that the proof made by the defendant below, “that plaintiff was a close and strict collector, ” was illegal evidence, and should by them be disregarded. We are all of opinion, that under the circumstances the evidence was admissible, and that the jury should have been left to consider of it.

Judgment reversed.
