Agreement for legal services and release in stock case
The case holds that the January 1892 writing fixed compensation for legal services to procure a release from paying the Equity Company, not a mere offer. The agreement was not tainted by champerty, and its terms bound the appellant to pay eight percent on $4,750 after the release, with two percent on $5,000 barred by the statute of limitations. The court overruled the demurrer to the evidence and affirmed the judgment for the appellees.
