Searing v. Lum

Searing v. Lum
Supreme Court of New Jersey · Decided September 15, 1819
5 N.J.L. 683
Searing v. Lum

Opinion of the Court

By the court

The justice has acted very incorrectly in altering his record after it was made up, and a copy given to the party. Such conduct deserves reprehension and punishment. He also erred in his exposition of the law, and his judgment must, therefore, be reversed.
