Brown v. Osborne

Indiana Supreme Court
Brown v. Osborne, 1 Blackf. 32 (Ind. 1818)
1818 Ind. LEXIS 13
Scott

Brown v. Osborne

Opinion of the Court

Scott, J.

In this case the record does not show the names of the judges who rendered the judgment complained of; nor does it appear from the transcript before us that there were any judges, except what may be conjectured from the statement that a judgment has been rendered. This is evidently a neglect of the clerk, but it is a defect for which the Court will not now reverse the proceedings.

Per Curiam.

A certiorari is awarded to the Gibson Circuit Court, directing them to send up a full and complete transcript of the record in this case (1).

It is a general rule, that, at any time pending a writ of error, whether before or after errors assigned, or after in nullo est erratum, pleaded, the Court, ex officio, may award a certiorari to inform their conscience, to affirm a judgment, but not to reverse it, or make error.
