New York Court of Appeals

Grant v. Morse

September 5, 186022 N.Y. 323

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals affirmed the judgment for the plaintiff who had built a leach house and leaches for the defendants. The Court held that the referee's general conclusion that the plaintiff was entitled to the contract price was sufficient to show that no breach or negligence was found, and that the appellate court may not substitute its own factual findings absent a clear error of law.
