MADE PERPETUAL
Judge CardweII Decides the Scott
Moore Case Other Decisions

Rendered..

Judge Cardwell, of the Supreme Court,
reversed the decision of the Chancery
Court of Richmond in the case Of Scott
VS.. Moore, and made. the injunction award
ed in TIE ease ,;cs.FEsEtual, putting the costs
on the appellant. The records in the case
date as far back as 1885, when James Caskie
purchased the land at Fourth and Frank
lin Streets and erected on it houses Nos.
400, 4C2 404, and 4O5 The property subse-
Quently changed hands, and a dispute
arose over the division line between Nos.
400 and 402 and the use of an alley way.
In 1891, NO. 402 was conveyed to r.
Carter Scott, who in 1895 conveyed it to
his wife. The property No. 400 was pur-
chased in 1854 confirmed in 1850 by
Thomas J. Moore for his wife, Julia G.
Moore, the defendant. The property was
sold under decree of the court by special
commissioners. but the advertisement did
not include the contested alley way, but
the deed did. Mrs. Moore nailed up either
end OF the alley way in dispute. and in
1859 had the dividing wall extended across
the alley way. An injunction was prayed
for granted and later dissolved, but is now
perpetuated.
The: court refused to rehear the case Of
Tabb VS.. Commonwealth. from the city of
Richmond, involving the question as to
whether the estate of remaindermen is
property which is held by life tenants. Tha'
refusal of the Supfeme Court to reihear
the case settles the matter finally, and
the decision of the lower court, which
was to the effect that remaindermen are
not liable for taxes assessed in the life
time of the tenant, becomes law.
