Roquemore v. Alloway
33 Tex. 461 | Tex. | 1870
An illegal contract can acquire no validity by transfer before or after maturity. The note sued on was given in aid of the rebellion. (See Story on Bills, § 198, 415, 1 Parsons on Contracts, 242; Kent’s Commentaries, vol. 3, page 80.)
The judgment is reversed and cause dismissed, at the cost of the appellee.
