Smith v. Brown

Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court
Smith v. Brown, 136 Mass. 416 (Mass. 1884)
1884 Mass. LEXIS 124
Morton

Smith v. Brown

Opinion of the Court

Morton, C. J.

The Superior Court had no jurisdiction to entertain and hear this writ of review. This question was adjudged in the case of Matthewson v. Moulton, 135 Mass. 122, which is decisive of the case at bar. As the court had no jurisdiction of the cause and subject matter, the objection taken at the trial of the writ of review was not too late. Santon, v. Ballard, 133 Mass. 464, and cases cited.

Writ of review quashed.
