General SummaryThis case is from a collection containing the full text of over 16,000 Supreme Court cases from 1793 to the present. The body of Supreme Court decisions are, effectively, the final interpretation of the Constitution. Only an amendment to the Constitution can permanently overturn an interpretation and this has happened only four times in American history.
Van Gieson v. Maile, 213 U.S. 338 (1909)
Van Gieson v. Maile No. 121 Submitted April 6, 1909 Decided April 19, 1909 213 U.S. 338
APPEAL FROM THE SUPREME COURT
OF THE TERRITORY OF HAWAII
Syllabus
However vexatious the conduct of a litigant may be, his property should not be sacrificed by reason of the court’s action, and it appearing, in this case, that the existence of an order in regard to a sale of property under execution made the sale disastrous, it was proper, whether the order was valid or not, to set the sale aside and order a reconveyance on payment into court of the amount of the judgment.
The facts are stated in the opinion.
