Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, 1847

Berg v. Moore

Berg v. Moore
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania · Decided November 1, 1847
7 Pa. 94; 1847 Pa. LEXIS 215

Berg v. Moore

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

It is settled by Knisley v. Shenberger, 7 Watts, 194, that a writ of error does not lie to the opinion of the Common Pleas on a question of error alleged to have been committed by arbitrators. The present is, in effect, a writ of error to the arbitrators; for the errors assigned are theirs, and not the errors of the court. But we can reverse only for error in the judgment — not in the award.

Judgment affirmed.
