Ely v. Karmany

Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
Ely v. Karmany, 23 Pa. 314 (Pa. 1854)
Lewis

Ely v. Karmany

Opinion of the Court

The opinion of the Court was delivered by

Lewis, J.

The instrument on which the judgments were entered is, in construction of law, a power given to the prothonotary. He has no better right than an attorney-at-law to enter two judgments under a single warrant. The entry of the first judgment exhausts the power, and in this case the Court committed' no error in vacating the second.

Judgment affirmed.
