Martin v. Imhsen, 62 U.S. 21 How. 394 394 (1858)

Martin v. Imhsen

62 U.S. (21 How.) 394

Syllabus

In Pennsylvania, where a transfer of certain accounts was made, the assignee had only an equitable interest, and could not sue in his own name. But when the suit was brought in Louisiana, where there is no distinction between a legal and equitable title, he could maintain the suit in his own name, and the assignment was good evidence.

An exception taken to the refusal of a judge to sign a bill of exceptions, under the circumstances of this case, requires no further notice. chanrobles.com-red
