New York Court of Appeals
David A. Knapp, Appellant v. J. Romaine Brown Impleaded With Anna M. Jackson, Respondent
March 21, 187145 N.Y. 207
Summary
The Court affirmed the lower court's judgment, holding that the appellant's issuance of an execution and collection of the judgment after filing an appeal waived his right to prosecute that appeal, and that the complaint against Mrs. Jackson was properly dismissed because she did not employ the plaintiff and therefore was not liable under the mechanics lien statute.
