Evesham v. Newton
Decided April 15, 1791
Supreme Court of New Jersey · decided 1791-04-15
TWO Justices of Gloucester County had removed one Delap from Newton in Gloucester to Evesham in Burlington County. Evesham appealed, and the sessions of Gloucester confirmed the order of the two Justices. On a certiorari, this order of the sessions was quashed in this court, and a bill of costs and expenses taxed. The bill contained an allowance for the maintenance of Delap’s wife and child by Evesham, pending the controversy.
