143 Fla. 447 | Fla. | 1940
These are companion cases in which appellants, being complainants in the court below, sought respectively by bills filed May 31, 1930, to have the tax assessments levied against their respective parcels of real estate declared void on several grounds.
On July 3, 1930, the complainants were amended to seek injunction of tax sale of the involved property. Injunction was denied. In the McAllister Realty Company case *448 amended and supplemental bill was filed March 22, 1932, and in the Richard McAllister case supplemental bill was filed March 17, 1932. The supplemental bills sought to have tax sale certificates issued on the sale for non-payment of taxes held void and cancelled as clouds on title.
On final hearing, after the taking of much testimony, final decrees dismissing the bills of complaint were entered in which it was decreed and the Chancellor held and adjudged.
"Plaintiff relied largely upon the case of West Virginia Hotel Corporation v. Foster,
"IT IS ORDERED, ADJUDGED and DECREED that the bills of complaint be and the same are hereby dismissed, and the lispendens heretofore filed and entered in each cause be and the same are hereby canceled and held for nought."
No useful purpose may be served by repeating here what we have said in the opinions cited and followed by the Chancellor.
The records disclose no reversible error and the decrees appealed from are affirmed.
So ordered.
*449Affirmed.
