Brush v. Taggart

Brush v. Taggart
New York Supreme Court · Decided November 15, 1810
7 Johns. 19
Brush v. Taggart

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

The decision below was correct. The ' contents of the writ of certiorari could not be proved by parol, so long as the writ itself, or a sworn copy of it, might have been produced. The case of Edmonstone v. Plaisted (4 Esp. Rep. 160.) shows the strict manner in which the contents of á process, or the existence of it, is to be proved,

Judgment affirmed.
