2 N.J.L. 163

Satterly v. Brown

Opinion of the Court

By the Court.

— It appears to be a hard case on the part of the plaintiff below; but we cannot affirm a judgment without seeing the state of demand; it is the groundwork and foundation of every action; we cannot say that a lawful judgment hath been obtained, until we see the state of demand.1

Judgment reversed.
