Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court · Decided January 30, 1886
141 Mass. 78; 6 N.E. 377; 1886 Mass. LEXIS 130

Commonwealth v. Brown

Opinion of the Court

By the Court.

The only question in this case is whether the complaint should have been quashed as insufficient. It follows the words of the statute, is in the form which is uniformly used, and which has been recognized as sufficient in numerous adjudged cases. The motion to quash was rightly overruled. Pub. Sts. c. 207, § 29. Commonwealth v. Sullivan, 5 Allen, 511. Commonwealth v. Doherty, 137 Mass. 245. Commonwealth v. Hart, 137 Mass. 247, n.

Exceptions overruled.
