State v. Hayslip

Opinion of the Court

By the Court.

We find that in Ohio the common-law writs and pleas are designated and defined by statute just as crimes are designated and defined by statute. The writs of coram nobis and co-ram vobis, which are invoked in behalf of the defendants in error, are no part of the criminal jurisprudence of the state of Ohio.

The judgment of the court of appeals is reversed and that of the court of common pleas affirmed.

Judgment reversed.

Nichols, C. J., Shauck, Johnson, Donahue, Wanamaker, Newman and Wilkin, JJ., concur.
