Opinion

The CHIEF JUSTICE:

It has often been held that in a writ of error to a joint judgment against several, all must join; and that the omission of one or more, without such proceeding, is an irregularity for which the writ will be dismissed. † The motion in the present case must, therefore, be

Granted.
