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.

Gallardo y Seary v. Noble No. 141 Argued January 20, 1915 Decided February 1, 1915 236 U.S. 135
APPEAL FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF THE UNITED STATES
FOR THE DISTRICT OF PORTO RICO
Syllabus
A statement of the condition of the record title made by an owner of property in Porto Rico does not necessarily enlarge the scope of an incumbrance mentioned in the statement from what it actually is or estop the person making the statement; e.g., a reference to a mortgage on crops as being one on the land.
A mortgage on property in Porto Rico held in this case to be one on the crops alone, and not on the land.
The facts, which involve the construction of a mortgage affecting property in Porto Rico and the determination of the question of whether it embraced the land or only the crops, are stated in the opinion.
