In Taylor Provision Co. v. Adams Express Co., 72 N. J. L. (at p. 221), Mr. Justice Dixon, speaking for the Court of Errors and Appeals, said: “The Circuit Court is a constitutional court of record, having general jurisdiction over common law actions inter partes and proceeding therein according to the course of the common law. As such its orders are reviewable, not by certiorari, but by writ of error, and only after final judgment.”
The o.rder made by the Circuit Court in the proceeding there has settled definitely the rights of the parties, and under the case of Knight v. Cape May Sand Co., 83 N. J. L. 597, and the cases there cited, the order m,ade was in its nature a final judgment from which only an appeal lies.
The writ of certiorari was improvidently granted and must be dismissed.
