Johnson v. Lowry
Johnson v. Lowry
Opinion of the Court
Perhaps a man who is merely moving through a county of this State, is not, in the literal sense of the words, “remov
The facts here show that the defendant was actually quitting, with his goods, the county where, by the law, he could be sued, and we think this is fairly a removing out of the county. The process is returnable to that county, just as the process is returnable to the county of the late residence of a citizen. We think the place for the return of the process is the test, and if a man in gfoing with his goods and family out of that county, he may fairly be said to be removing out of that county.
Judgment reversed.
