Shallcross v. Smith
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania · Decided March 6, 1876 · Agnew, Gordon, Mercur, Paxson, Sharswood, Woodward
81 Pa. 132; 1876 Pa. LEXIS 128

Shallcross v. Smith

Opinion of the Court

Judgment was entered in the Supreme Court,

Per. Curiam.

— The warrant of attorney and bond of Mrs. Shallcross were a mere nullity. The entry of judgment on it was not binding on her and can be stricken off. But it does not follow that the bond and warrant are void as to her husband, Samuel S. Shallcross. Being void as to her, it was his bond singly. We see no error in refusing to strike off the judgment as to him.

Judgment affirmed.
