Stewart v. State
Supreme Court of Alabama
Stewart v. State, 100 Ala. 1 (Ala. 1893)
Stewart v. State
Opinion of the Court
The act “To provide for the drawing and organization of grand and petit juries in the county of Wilcox,” approved Febrvary 18, 1893,—Sess. Acts, 1892-93, p. 706—is unquestionably unconstitutional. It was an attempt to revive a law without re-enacting and publishing it at length, as required by Article 4, Section 2, of the Constitution of the State of Alabama. As an attempt at legislation it was a failure. There was nothing in the objection of defendant, and it was rightly overruled.
Affirmed.
