New York Court of Appeals

Samuel Billings, Respondent v. Leslie W. Russell, Impleaded

January 19, 1886101 N.Y. 226

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals reversed the General Term's reversal and affirmed the referee's finding that the mortgage was fraudulent and void as against the debtor's creditors, holding that payment of valuable consideration does not negate fraudulent intent. The court also clarified that appellate review of the General Term was limited to errors of law because the factual record was not before it.
