California Supreme Court, 1861

People v. Smith

People v. Smith
California Supreme Court · Decided July 1, 1861 · Baldwin
18 Cal. 498; 1861 Cal. LEXIS 241

People v. Smith

Opinion of the Court

Baldwin, J. delivered the opinion of the Court

Cope, J. concurring.

The complaint in this case contains a good cause of action, and the demurrer was properly overruled. There is nothing to show that the defendant offered to appear by attorney, even if this would avail against the entry of forfeiture in the Court of Sessions. (People v. Wolf, 16 Cal. 385.)

Judgment affirmed.
