Gregory v. Bray

Opinion of the Court

Stone J.

If the Court had any discretion to exercise, this would be a proper case to use it: but the act is positive.

M’Coy, J.

-The act of assembly leaves the party in this case without a remedy. It is not in the power of the court to create one for him. It has been often adjudged so.

Harris and Badger for the plaintiff. Martin for the defendant.

The judgment was affirmed absolutely.
