Tennessee Supreme Court, 1808

Cobb v. Conway

Cobb v. Conway
Tennessee Supreme Court · Decided September 15, 1808
1 Tenn. 294

Cobb v. Conway

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

The mode pointed out in the act prevents an abatement for two terms; after this the case stands as if no act bad ever been passed. Within two terms, there may be no necessity for a bill of revivor, if the bill were served on the ancestor, as in the case of Lenoir and Lewis vs. Outlaw and als.— After the expiration of two terms, a revivor may take place in the same manner it does in England. Let the demurrer be overrule d, and the suit revived.
