Barnett v. State

Barnett v. State
Supreme Court of Alabama · Decided June 15, 1859 · Walker
34 Ala. 260

Barnett v. State

Opinion of the Court

A. J. WALKER, C. J.

The appeal in this case must be dismissed. The bond is a security for such costs only as the appellee may sustain. If the judgment should be affirmed, the appellee certainly does not sustain all the costs. Therefore, in the event of an affirmance, there is no security for all the costs. — Hinson v. Preslor, 27 Ala. 643; Walker v. Hunter, at the last term.
