Docket Number | (No. 10676.) |
Citation | 108 S.E. 150 |

Action by W. C. Hayes against J. Mason McGill. Judgment for plaintiff, and defendant appeals. Appeal dismissed.
J. S. Brice, of York, for appellant.

The point is not that his honor the trial judge misstated the law as to implied warranty, but that his error was in charging the law of implied warranty in a case in which the plaintiff relied upon an express warranty. The respondent had not been misled, and the question should be decided.
It seems to me that his honor did charge the jury that, if the plaintiff failed to establish his express warranty upon which he relied, then the jury might still find for the plaintiff under the implied...
