Alford v. Rieves

Opinion of the Court

Walker, J.

This is an attempt to bring a case to this court by writ of error, which was appealed from a justice’s court to the District Court. The writ of error has been decided by this court, repeatedly, to be but another mode of appeal.

The Act of August 13th, 1810, Section 12 (p. 98, Laws, 1810), forbids an appeal of this kind, and it is therefore dismissed.

Appeal dismissed.
