Title 9, Chapter 13, Section 104
( 9-13-104)
Whenever a claim is dismissed for insufficiency or is withdrawn, the
plaintiff in execution may have a case made up and submitted to the
jury charging that the claim was filed for the purpose of delay.
Upon proof of the same, defendant and claimant having the same power
to resist the case as in claim cases where damages are claimed, the
jury, under instructions from the court, may give damages as in
cases where the claim is not withdrawn but is submitted for trial to
the jury. The cases so submitted shall be tried at the time of the
disposal of the claim if the parties are ready, but continuances
shall be granted as in other cases. |
