Bollman Bros. Co. v. Peake
Decision Date | 07 October 1902 |
Citation | 96 Mo. App. 253,69 S.W. 1058 |
Court | Missouri Court of Appeals |
Parties | BOLLMAN BROS. CO. v. PEAKE. |
1. By force of section 1575, Rev. St. 1899, the necessity of a previous demand for the return of bailed property, before the owner can maintain an action of replevin to recover possession, is abrogated. Hence the statute of limitations runs against the owner's right to sue, although he makes no demand, if an act is done by the bailee inconsistent with the bailment, as by selling the property.
