Section 23-2-30. Reformation and execution of contract in case of mistake distinguished

Latest version.

To authorize the former, the court shall be satisfied by the evidence that the mistake was mutual; but the court may refuse to act in the latter case if the mistake is confined to the party refusing to execute.
