New York Court of Appeals

George T. Cole, Respondents v. Oscar E. Mann, Appellant

April 27, 187562 N.Y. 1

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals affirmed the General Term’s order granting a new trial and entered judgment for the plaintiffs, holding that under the consignment agreement the title to the piano did not pass to the consignee until payment was made, and that the sheriff was not a bona fide purchaser, so his execution sale was unlawful.
