Stewart v. Smith

(nem. con.) ordered the sale to be set aside, because the decree nisi, notwithstanding the clause in it stating that it should be final nisi the end of the term then next succeeding, did not become absolute until after the sale had been made. Having adopted, as general rules of practice in this Court, the rules prescribed by the Supreme Court of the United States, this Court is bound by them, and the defendants had a right to appear according to those rules.
