Section 1093. Collusive recovery not to prejudice infant


Latest version.
  • Where a widow, not
      having  a  right  to  dower,  recovers  dower  against an infant, by the
      default or collusion of his guardian, the infant shall not be prejudiced
      thereby; but when he comes of full  age,  he  may  bring  an  action  of
      ejectment  against  the  widow,  to  recover  the property so wrongfully
      awarded for dower, with damages from the  time  when  she  entered  into
      possession, although that is more than six years before the commencement
      of the action.
