Vawter v. Grant

Indiana Supreme Court
Vawter v. Grant, 10 Ind. 7 (Ind. 1857)

Vawter v. Grant

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

Grant and Fisk sued Vawter in the Common Pleas, demanding judgment for 1,000 dollars.

In Fisher v. Prewitt, 7 Ind. R. 519, the majority of the Court held that the Common Pleas Court had no jurisdiction of such a sum. A majority of the Court hold the same doctrine now — Stxjart, J., dissenting.

The judgment is reversed with eosts. Cause remanded, with instructions to dismiss it for want of jurisdiction.
