Fairfax’s Devisee v. Hunter’s Lessee 11 U.S. 603 (1813) was a United States Supreme Court case arising out of the acquisition of Fairfax land in the Northern Neck of the state of Virginia by the family and associates of John Marshall including Robert Morris. Because of the complexity of the conveyances of Fairfax land prior to the acquisition litigation was almost bound to arise even in the absence of questions arising under the Peace Treaty.
