Supreme Court of Florida

James A. Herrin v. W. M. Brown

June 15, 190244 Fla. 782

Summary

The Supreme Court of Florida affirmed the dismissal of the heirs' bill because the pleading failed to allege that J.R. Herrin was the head of a family at the time of his wife's death, resulting in loss of the homestead exemption; the court also reiterated that pleadings are to be construed most strongly against the pleader.
