17 P. 220; 1888 Cal. LEXIS 969

Longnecker v. His Creditors

Opinion of the Court

Per CURIAM.

This is an appeal from an order denying a motion to set aside a decree of final discharge in insolvency. The motion was based upon the inadvertence, surprise, excusable neglect, etc., of the appellant. The disposition of motions of this kind rests largely in the discretion of the nisi prius court; and in this ease we see no such abuse of discretion as would warrant us in disturbing the ruling of the court below. Order affirmed.
