New York Court of Appeals

John Marsh v. Joseph Falker

June 15, 186940 N.Y. 562

Summary

The Court of Appeals affirmed the judgment for the defendant, holding that the plaintiff failed to prove the defendant's representations about Isaac Kahn's solvency were made with knowledge of their falsity or with intent to deceive. Consequently, the alleged fraudulent statements were not actionable, and the nonsuit was proper.
