Analysis

No analysis yet. When one exists it is a model's reading of this opinion — the rulings it reviewed, whether it agrees with the court, and the authorities it checked — shown beside the court's own disposition, never in place of it. How analyses are made.

Opinion — Terry

Terry, C. J., delivered the opinion of the Court— Field, J., concurring.

The allegations in the complaint are not supported by the evidence; and it is clear, from an examination of the record, that the plaintiff has mistaken his form of action, and that his remedy is in contract and not in tort.

Judgment reversed.
