Addis v. Evans

Supreme Court of New Jersey
Addis v. Evans, 3 N.J.L. 142 (N.J. 1806)
Kirkpatrick, Pennington, Sere

Addis v. Evans

Opinion of the Court

Kirkpatrick, C. J.

— There is no copy of account or state of demand. This is the foundation of the action. Without it, I think we cannot affirm the judgment. That the plaintiff should have a legal cause of action, and that this should be intelligibly set forth in the proceedings, is of the essence of every record. For want of this, I think this judgment must be reversed.(a)

Ros sere, and Pennington, Justices, concurred.

Judgment reversed.
