In addition to an ordinary trespass-to-try-title count, appellees specially pleaded that what is in form a deed Lucy Kirksey executed and

FAULKNER, Justice (dissenting). I concur in the dissent of Mr. Justice Jones. I write this only for the purpose of asking a question, to wit, “Will the Judge who knows the meaning of the words “plainly and palpably” please stand up?” The Third New International Dictionary defines the adverb “palpably” as capable of being palpable. “Palpable” is defined as capable of being touched or felt, and percep

OPINION Appeal is taken from a conviction for using a telephone with intent to harass, annoy and torment another.1 After the jury returned a verdict of guilty, punishment was assessed by the court at thirty days in jail, probated for one year.

January 27, 1978, plaintiff filed suit pro se to recover certain items of personal property alleged to be his, which were left on the

The question presented here is, who ultimately owned this crop of wheat? As I understand the opinion of the learned justice who tried this cause (none was given at the General Term), he held that this wheat did not pass to the plaintiff by the devise to her of the farm; that, since the Revised Statutes, it would go to the executor, to be applied and distributed under other provisions of the will. The Revised Statutes declare that "crops growing on the land of the deceased, at the time

Gilbert, J. We think the writ of certiorari should have been directed to the board of trustees instead of the corporation; and that the return should have been made by them, or by the clerk. By the eighth section of the village charter, the trustees áre required to form a board, and the next section requires the clerk to attend all meetings of such board, to record their proceedings, and to deliver such record over to his succes

Doe, J. Misconduct of arbitrators is not the subject of a plea, but only a ground to apply to the court to set aside the award. This may be done upon motion, when the award is returnable to court, and upon a bill in equity in other cases. Page v. Pendergast, 2 N. H. 233, 235; Adams v. Adams, 8 N. H. 82; Bassett v. Harkness, 9 N. H. 164; Rand v. Redington, 13 N. H. 72;

PER CURIAM. The appellants, as plaintiffs in the trial court, seek review of an order of dismissal of their action sounding in tort upon the doctrine of forum non conveniens.1 We affirm. The accident out of which the cause of action arose occurred in Lima, Peru. The plaintiffs-decedents were not residents of the United States; they had no contact with this country; they did not p

Mary B. Baber, joined by her husband, brought this suit for recovery of a 200-acre tract of land in Stephens county, and to cancel a mineral deed to 640 acres of land of which the 200-acre tract was a part, and also to cancel an agreement for the sharing of the proceeds of minerals from said 640-acre tract and other lands. The defendants are R. E. Faulkner and G. F. Faulkner, brothers of plaintiff, Mary B. Baber, and C. M. Faulkner and W. E. Faulkner, nephews — the children of a decease

One Faulkner entered into a business arrangement with MacCloy and another, and a couple of days thereafter MacCloy swore to a complaint charging Faulkner with larceny by obtaining money under false pretenses. A warrant was issued thereon and executed by the sheriff, who arrested Faulkner and placed him in jail. At that time, there was taken from Faulkner's possession by the sheriff the sum of $4,555. This sum is now in the hands of the sheriff, and is the bone of contention in this action.
