Delaware Court of Common Pleas, 1818

State v. Tumlin

Delaware Court of Common Pleas · Decided May 15, 1818

1 Del. Cas. 550

Counsel

T. Clayton, for defendant,

Opinion of the Court

[Note.] But in fact there is a subsequent Act of Assembly, 3 Del.Laws [230], much stronger than 2 Del.Laws 866, which did not occur either to the Court or counsel at the time.2

At this point the following comment is added in another hand, “This is not true, for it did occur to defendant’s counsel; and besides, this is a most lame report of the case.”
