Kennard v. Kennard

George G. Kennard, the alleged plaintiff in error, having died before the filing of the petition in error, the attempt to institute a proceeding .in error in his name was ineffectual. To constitute a proceeding in error, there must be a plaintiff in error. If there is no plaintiff in error, the court acquires no jurisdiction of the cause. If the heirs or legal representatives of a deceased party seek to institute proceedings in error they must do so in their own names, and not in the name of the deceased.

Motion overruled and cause stricken from the docket.
