Garwood v. New York Central and Hudson River Rd. Co.

Court of Appeals of the State of New York
Oct 8, 1889
22 N.E. 396 (N.Y. 1889)

Summary

In Garwood v. N.Y.C. H.R.R.R. Co. (116 N.Y. 649) the diversion, as shown by the record on file in this court, was less than that testified to by the defendant's witnesses in the case before us. Even if the damages are slight, where the act complained of is such that by its repetition or continuance it may become the foundation or evidence of an adverse right, a court of equity will interpose by injunction.
