This case involved a dispute over a real estate transaction where the plaintiff sought specific performance and the defendant counterclaimed for breach of contract and conversion of a trailer.
The parties had an informal agreement for the sale of property for $40,000, which the plaintiff paid in installments and began renovations.
The transaction failed to close due to the defendant's later assertion that the price was $80,000, influenced by an unexpected mortgage amount.
The court found the defendant's claim of an $80,000 purchase price incredible and dismissed the counterclaim regarding the trailer due to insufficient evidence.
The court ordered specific performance, vesting title in the plaintiff.
