Σελίδα 181 - ... for their lives, and the life of the survivor ; and after the death of the survivor...
Σελίδα 674 - The general distinction is this : where the immediate act of imprisonment proceeds from the defendant, the action must be trespass and trespass only; but where the act of imprisonment by one person is in consequence of information from another, there an action upon the case is the proper remedy, because the injury is sustained in consequence of the wrongful act of that other.
