Cobb v. Cobb ( 1885 )

Farmer, J.

An agent who collects money is responsible for five per cent, interest thereon from the date when he should have paid the money collected to his principal.

2. Where no interest is claimed in the petition, but a plea in compensation is set up, the interest due to plaintiff may be urged as an offset to defendant’s demand, without replication.

3. Where no motion to amend is filed by appellee, the judgment appealed from will not- be amended in his favor by the Circuit Court.
