State v. City of Bangor

Supreme Judicial Court of Maine
State v. City of Bangor, 38 Me. 592 (Me. 1854)
Appleton, Howard, Shepley, Tenney

State v. City of Bangor

Opinion of the Court

Shepley, C. J.

— After verdict a motion was made in arrest of judgment, for a cause not apparent from a record of the case, but requiring proof to be made by the introduction of the record of another case.

A motion in arrest of judgment can be entertained only for matters apparent upon an inspection of the record. Bangor Bank v. Treat, 6 Greenl. 207; Root v. Henry, 6 Mass. 504; Watt's case, 4 Leigh, 672; State v. Heyward, 2 Nott & McCord, 312; Gardner v. The People, 3 Scam. 83; Steward v. The State, 13 S. & M. 573.

It is not therefore necessary to consider, whether the objection would have been effectual, if it had been properly and seasonably presented. Exceptions overruled.

Tenney, Howard and Appleton, J. J., concurred.
