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 — Thornton
Thornton, J.:
The plaintiffs in this case showed that they were entitled to at least nominal damages. Their cattle, when in a very poor condition, and in a dry season when there was no food for them except at a distance, were excluded by the defendants from land where the plaintiffs had a right to have them, from which a cause of action arose, and by which they suffered some damage. The nonsuit was improperly granted, and the judgment and order denying defendants’ motion for a new trial are consequently reversed, and the cause remanded for a new trial.
Sharpstein, J., and Myrick, J., concurred.
