Hightower v. Hightower
Hightower v. Hightower
Opinion of the Court
By the Court.
delivering the opinion.
We felt that we had no discretion to relieve the party from his' own laches in that case. And we shall adhere to the precedent then established.
Here is not only a legislative sanction of the writ of error and citation, established by this Court, in its rules, but a legislative, declaration, that if these, together with the notice and bill of exceptions created by the Act of 1845, are filed and served, that all other defects may be instantly amended, and the cause proceed. But these must all be served and filed within the time prescribed by law, that is, the Statute of the State, organizing this Court and its rules; thus evincing as to these particulars, a determination neither to make or allow any relaxation.
The case must be dismissed.
