Ochsner v. Langendorf

Carl Langendorf, defendant in error, plaintiff below, brought an action for possession of certain real estate, of which he was the owner, against the Ochsners who claimed possession for the year 1946 by virtue of an oral assignment of a lease from Henry Moore, who admittedly had an oral lease on the premises for the year 1945. The trial court ruled against the Ochsners, quieted title to the property in, and awarded its possession to, Langendorf. The Ochsners seek reversal on a writ of error and have asked that the matter be decided on their application for supersedeas, and we have elected to so dispose of it.
