Michigan Supreme Court, 1888

Luton v. Palmer

Luton v. Palmer
Michigan Supreme Court · Decided May 8, 1888
70 Mich. 152; 38 N.W. 13
Luton v. Palmer

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

Held, the writ must be denied.

That the affidavit is insufficient to give the court jurisdiction. The affiant neither states the facts positively, nor gives the circumstances upon which he has good reason to believe they exist. This must be done, in order to give the court jurisdiction.
