160 Pa. 252; 28 A. 694; 1894 Pa. LEXIS 801
Wentzel's Appeal
Opinion of the Court
By act of April 22, 1863, P. L. 531, the provisions of the act of March 31,1860, were extended so as to include guardians “ in the same manner as executors, administrators and assignees.” The later act therefore embraces the case of a fraudulent guardian ; but the duty of the common pleas, under the 133d section thereof, is not to discharge generally, but onl}- “from imprisonment.” It does not appear that appellant has as 3-et been imprisoned, and hence said section is inapplicable to his case.
Decree affirmed and appeal dismissed with costs to be paid by appellant.
