Scott v. Israel
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
Scott v. Israel, 2 Binn. 145 (Pa. 1809)
1809 Pa. LEXIS 45
Scott v. Israel
Opinion of the Court
We have no doubt in this case. The attorney having marked his name generally, and in no part of the record having declared that he appeared for one in particular, must be presumed to have appeared for both; and the plea entered in this short way, must be referred to the appearance, and be considered as a plea for both. As to the defendant’s being summoned, it is not material, he may appear without summons.
Judgment affirmed.
