Bunnell v. State ex rel. Munson
Bunnell v. State ex rel. Munson
Opinion of the Court
Suit upon an administration bond, against principal and sureties. Judgment for plaintiff.
The appellants object, that the judgment is not sustained by the evidence, and that it is irregular in point of form.
1. As to the evidence. The following is the bill of exceptions: “Be it remembered, that on the trial of the above-entitled cause, the following was all the evidence given to the
“¥m. R. Boyeb, O. P. Judge.” [seal.]
It is very manifest that this bill of exceptions does not contain the evidence. In another part of the record, the clerk copies divers papers which, he says, were given in evidence, but we cannot regard his statement. He can not thus bind the Court and parties.
2. As to the form of the judgment. It is general against the principal and sureties. It is claimed, that it should have been non-repleviable, as to the principal, and repleviable, as to the sureties. Perhaps 2 R. S., § 164, p. 287, construed with § 429, p. 133, of the same volume, authorizes the judgment as rendered; but, if they do not, the judgment may be corrected below, on motion, as to form. The point has not been presented to the Common Pleas.
The judgment is affirmed, with 1 per cent, damages and costs.
