Kirk v. United States

We are of the opinion that it was a proper exercise of the court’s discretion to preserve the status quo until it shall be determined by proof on the trial whether or not the person named in the recognizance was taken into the custody of the court under such circumstances as to relieve the surety, and whether the order forfeiting and estreating the recognizance was in fact made before the time when such person was ordered to appear.

The order is affirmed.
