United States v. Cookendorfer

(Morsell, J., contra,) was of opinion that after the term in which a recognizance has been forfeited, in a criminal case, they have no power to remit the forfeiture, and overruled Mr. Bandrldgés motion; but recommended the case to the consideration of the President of the United States, who made this indorsement on the petition: “ The indictment having been quashed the recognizance ought not to be enforced. On that sole ground the remission is directed on payment of costs. M. V. B.”
