Syllabus
<p>Replevin — Relief—Pleading—Courts — Jurisdiction. In an action of replevin to recover property sold conditionally, upon which plaintiff claimed a default and a balance due, the court, upon finding a sum due less than the amount claimed, has jurisdiction to decree the usual judgment in replevin in faVor of the plaintiff, unless the defendant, within ten days, .pays the amount found to be due, with costs and attorney’s fees, although the payments made and the balance found did not equal the contract price of the goods sold; especially where the real controversy was over the amount due, if any, and whether the property sold had all been delivered; since property sold conditionally is held only for security, and the relief granted was equitable, and the court may grant any relief consistent with the case made by the pleadings.</p>
