Covenhoven v. State

Supreme Court of New Jersey

Cur

Covenhoven v. State

Opinion of the Court

Per Cur.

The objections are insufficient; there was both notice and appearance. The signature of the justice to the inquisition is unnecessary. As to the figures, the eases cited apply exclusively to indictments ; in New Jersey these inquisitions are considered as civil prosecutions ; and, as quashing is not de jure, we will not do it on these exceptions.
