Hampton v. Rouse
80 U.S. 187; 20 L. Ed. 593; 13 Wall. 187; 1871 U.S. LEXIS 1328
(United States Reports)
Hampton v. Rouse
Opinion
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.
