Levy v. Brooklyn Fire Insurance

25 Wend. 687 | N.Y. Sup. Ct. | 1841

The Chief Justice

said, that without attempting to lay down any general rule as to the reference of actions on policies of insurance, he was of opinion that in a case involving such serious charges as were here brought against the plaintiff, a party was entitled to the benefit of a trial before a court and jury, and that therefore he would direct the order for reference to be vacated.

Ordered accordingly.*

See 6 Wendell, 503: 19 Id. 22 and 110; and 1 Hall’s R. 560.
