Illinois Supreme Court, 1848

Hickman v. Haines

Hickman v. Haines
Illinois Supreme Court · Decided December 15, 1848
10 Ill. 20

Hickman v. Haines

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

The case of Ripley v. Morris, 2 Gilm. 381, is decisive of the motion. The Court there held that a writ' of error was a new action, and that whenever a non-resident commences an action either in the Circuit or Supreme Court, without filing security for the costs, the Court is required to dismiss the same.

The case is dismissed at the costs of the plaintiff in error.

Motion allowed.
