KELLY V. CENTRAL PACIFIC RAILROAD CO.
77 Cal. 557 (1888)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was a suit in specific performance for a land sale contract.
FACTS: Central (D) offered tracts of land for sale to settlers and actual occupants of
the lands. D agreed to convey certain lands to Kelly (P). This promise and contract was made
on the false representation by P to D that P was the bona fide occupant of the land. When D
learned of this fraud, they notified P that they could not honor the contract and tendered
back his first payment. P sued D and the lower court ordered the land to be conveyed to the
person in actual possession who had intervened. P appealed.
