DESCHENES V. TALLMAN
161 N.E. 321 (1928)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was an action for the foreclosure of a purchase money mortgage
and in the counterclaim for a breach of a covenant of seizin.
FACTS: Deschenes (P) sold land to Tallman (D) in April, 1925. The predecessor in title
was Miller, a Canadian company. That company was judged insolvent in 1911 and its property
was ordered sold. The liquidators conveyed the land to P who then sold to D. The land is
located in New York City. D insists that the title to the land did not pass under the deed
to the foreign liquidators. With that defense, P got a quitclaim deed by the Canadian
Corporation. Under Canadian law, the corporation has continued life until all affairs of the
corporation are wound up under the supervision of the liquidator.
