U.S. Circuit Court for the District of Eastern New York · Decided March 31, 1890 · Lacombe
42 F. 112; 1890 U.S. App. LEXIS 2125
Golden v. The Morning News of New Haven

Opinion of the Court

Lacombe, J.

It has been held in this circuit that service such as this does not confer jurisdiction upon the state court to render a personal judgment against the defendant, and that such judgment, had the case ’not-been removed, would be treated in this court as void. Good Hope Co. v. Railway Barb Fencing Co., 22 Fed. Rep. 635. That decision determines the question raised here. Motion to vacate service of the pro-'éóss is’granted.
