Description
THIS was a writ of right brought by Green, the Demandant, against the tenants, to recover seizin of a large tract of land lying in Kentucky, and set forth in the count. The writ of right was sued out under the act of the Virginia assembly, entitled 'an act for reforming the method of proceeding in writs of right.' At the trial in the Circuit Court for the Kentucky district, several questions arose upon which the Court was divided; whereupon those questions were certified for the opinion of the Supreme Court. They are as follows:1st. Has the Circuit Court of the United States jurisdiction in a writ of right, where the land claimed by the Demandant is above the value of $500, but the tenement held by the tenant is of less value than $500? 2d. Can the Demandant join in the writ and count several tenants claiming under several distinct, separate and independent original titles, all of which interfere with the land of the Demandant? If he can, must he demand of them the tenements they severally hold, or may he demand a tenement to the extent of his own title? If it comprizes a part not claimed or held by any of the said tenants, may he demand, in his count against the several tenants, his own tenement, or must he demand of each tenant the tenement he severally holds?
