Dunleavey v. Dunleavey

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Nov 1, 1903
87 App. Div. 601 (N.Y. App. Div. 1903)

Opinion

November Term, 1903.

W. Tazewell Fox, for the appellant.

H.A. Monfort, for the respondents.

Present — GOODRICH, P.J., WOODWARD, HIRSCHBERG, JENKS and HOOKER, JJ.


This appeal presents nothing for review. The action is brought to procure the cancellation of a deed made by the father (now deceased) of the plaintiff and of the defendant William Dunleavey on the ground that the grantor was of unsound mind at the time the deed was executed, and on the further ground that its execution was procured by fraud practiced and undue influence exerted by the defendants. The learned trial justice has found on sufficient evidence that the grantor was of sound mind and understanding at the time the deed was executed, acknowledged and delivered; that the deed was not procured by the defendants by the exercise of fraud, deceit, artifice or imposition, but that, on the contrary, it was the free, unconstrained and voluntary act of the grantor. The appellant took no exception upon the trial. The judgment is entered upon a decision which states separately the facts found and the conclusions of law, and no exception has been filed to the decision. The decision being abundantly supported by the evidence, the appeal from the judgment presents no questions for consideration. ( Lanier v. Hoadley, 42 App. Div. 6; Clements v. Beale, 53 id. 416, 417; Donellan v. Ketchum, 78 id. 144; Piltz v. Yonkers Railroad Co. 83 id. 29.)

The judgment should be affirmed.


Judgment unanimously affirmed, with costs.
