New York Court of Appeals

Cornelia D. Earle, Respondent v. William P. Earle, Impleaded

October 2, 188393 N.Y. 104

Summary

The Court affirmed the judgment, holding that the former co-executor Charles Dodd was not a necessary party, that William P. Earle was jointly liable with Mary E. Earle for losses caused by negligent third‑party agents, and that the order directing payment into the U.S. Trust Company was erroneous and should be modified to allow a secured bond; the remainder of the judgment was affirmed without costs.
