New York Court of Appeals

Leonard Hangen, Respondent v. Christian Hachemeister, Appellant

June 18, 1889114 N.Y. 566

Summary

The Court affirmed the judgment that the chattel mortgage was void as against the mortgagor's creditors because there was an agreement allowing the mortgagor to sell and keep the proceeds of the mortgaged goods, and it held that the plaintiff's evidence of receipts, expenses, and the witness's valuation testimony was admissible.
