New York Court of Appeals

Edmund R. Morris, Respondent v. Ira B. Tuthill, Impleaded

February 19, 187872 N.Y. 575

Summary

The Court affirmed the lower court's order, holding that alleged fraudulent motives and lack of consideration in the assignment of mortgages do not constitute a defense to a foreclosure action; the plaintiff's title is sufficient so long as the debt is due and transferred.
