Johnston v. Porter

Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
Johnston v. Porter, 7 Watts 356 (Pa. 1838)

Johnston v. Porter

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

The submission being under the act of 1705, the award stood before the court on the footing of a verdict, and the decision of the exceptions to it was equivalent to the overruling of a motion for a new trial. It is not in the power of arbitrators to put the merits on the record for revision here; and we have before us the form of an ordinary ejectment, on which there is no error.

Judgment affirmed.
