Hyland v. Water Works Co.
Indiana Supreme Court · Decided November 15, 1871 · Downey
37 Ind. 523

Hyland v. Water Works Co.

Opinion of the Court

Downey; J.

The only question in this case is, whether section ten of the act of- February 21st, 1871, known as the fee and salary law, which fixes one dollar and fifty cents as the per diem of witnesses attending the Supreme, circuit, and criminal courts, and courts of common pleas, is valid or not. We have concluded that it is valid.

The j’udgment of the common pleas, taxing the witness fees in this case as thus fixed, is therefore affirmed, with costs.
