Bray v. Redman

California Supreme Court

1856 Cal. LEXIS 129
Terry

Bray v. Redman

Opinion of the Court

The opinion of the Court was delivered by Mr. Justice Terry.

Mr. Chief Justice Murray concurred.

A justice of the peace may refuse to send up the transcript of a cause tried by him, unless all his legal fees be first paid by the appellant. (McDermott v. Douglass, 5 Cal.) But if he choose to waive his right, and file the papers, the fact that his fees have not been paid is no ground for dismissing the appeal.

Judgment reversed.
