January v. Johnson County
U.S. Circuit Court for the District of Kansas · Decided July 1, 1874 · Dillon
13 F. Cas. 362; 3 Dill. 402
January v. Johnson County

Opinion of the Court

DILLON, Circuit Judge.

As the act in which this section is found does not profess in its title or body to be a curative act, and as when comparing this act with the act of 1872 which it amended, it appears to have *363been the purpose of section 7 to change the mode of levying and collecting the taxes, it is my opinion that it was not intended to have, and does not have, the effect to make binding upon the county, bonds which would otherwise be void. Demurrer overruled.
