State v. . Osborne

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

— The case is not in a state for the decision of the questions argued at the bar, as no judgment of the Superior Court, either final or interlocutory, appears upon the record. The discharge of a rule to show cause, why a new trial should not be granted, is not an interlocutory judgment within the act of 1831, ch. 34; which means a decision of the Court establishing a right of the plaintiff or disposing of some part of the defence conclusively, as that partition be made, or that the defendant answer over, or the like.

*115 The appeal must therefore be dismissed at the costs of the appellant, and the case remanded for farther proceedings to be had in the Superior Court.
