Stephens v. Jackson

Opinion of the Court

Bronson, Chief Justice.

It is questionable whether the defendants have been strictly regular. There was no ground for a bill of particulars, so far as two special counts are concerned. But, without settling any point of practice, I will make an order which will answer the purpose of both parties, as the plaintiff admits that he has no evidence under the common counts. Ordered, that the common counts be stricken out of plaintiff’s declaration.
