Description

SYLLABUS BY THE COURT 1. "An adjudication by a court having jurisdiction of the subject-matter and the parties is final and conclusive, not only
as to the matters actually determined, but as to every other matter which the parties might have litigated as incident thereto
and coming within the legitimate purview of the subject-matter of the action. It is not essential that the matter should have
been formally put in issue in a former suit, but it is sufficient that the status of the suit was such that the parties might
have had the matter disposed of on its merits. An erroneous ruling of the court will not prevent the matter from being res
judicata." Syl. pt. 1, Sayre's Adm'r v. Harpold, 33 W.Va. 553, 11 S.E. 16 (1890) (emphasis in original).
