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