Wilson Printing Ink Co. v. Ford

Newburger, J. This is an appeal from a judgment in favor of the defendants and against the plaintiff after a trial before the court without a jury. This action was brought on a promissory note given by the defendants. The answer is a tender. The tender was made on the 10th day of July, 1890, and the amount tendered at that time was §153.50, which was paid into court on August 19, 1890. The deposit in court should have at least been accompanied by the interest up to the time the deposit was made, for the defendants had the unrestrained use of the money up to that time. Murphy v. Gold Stock Co., 3 N. Y. Supp. 804-806. In the case at bar interest to date of deposit did not accompany the deposit; therefore, the judgment must be [625] reversed and a new trial ordered, with costs to appellant to abide the event. Ehblich, Ch. J., concurs. Judgment reversed, new trial ordered, costs to appellant to abide event.
