Ruffin

State ex rel. Justis v. Ledbetter

Opinion of the Court

Ruffin, C. J.

In a previous case at this term, State v Ledbetter, ante p. 242, we have given our reasons for affirming a similar judgment, quashing proceedings in bastardy, where the examination did not appear to have been taken in due time. The present is still a stronger case; since it is unquestionable, that an examination, not appearing to have been taken on oath, is radically defective.

Per Curiam, Judgment affirmed.
