Citation | 245 Miss. 301,148 So.2d 198 |
Decision Date | 07 January 1963 |
Docket Number | No. 42416,42416 |
Parties | H. H. LAWLER and G. G. Gibbons v. Joseph W. MORAN. |
Court | United States State Supreme Court of Mississippi |
William V. Murry, Hattiesbur, for appellants.
Edward Tremmel, Biloxi, for appellee.
No brief has been filed by appellee in this case, nor has any reason for the failure to do so been assigned. Appellant filed a brief and certified that a true copy of the same had been delivered in due time to the attorney for appellee, postage prepaid to his usual place of abode.
After carefully examining the record, we are of the opinion that there was abundant proof that appellant, H. H. Lawler, was entitled to the immediate possession of the sailboat in question in this replevin suit. The motion of the appellant for judgment notwithstanding the verdict should have been sustained.
In the case of Gulf M. & O. R. Company v. Webster County, 194 Miss. 660, 13 So.2d 644, it is said:
* * *

'Reversed and judgment here for the appellant.'
Reversed and judgment here for appellant.
