Indiana Supreme Court

Decided May 15, 1863

Indiana Supreme Court · decided 1863-05-15

<p>.Practice. — In the absence of any proper showing of the reasons upon which the Court acted below, this Court will presume that the action of the lower Court was proper.</p>

Decided 1863-05-15

Per Curiam.

¶1The record shows that this was an application before a justice for surety of the peace, which was not* sustained. The applicant appealed to the Common Pleas, where, on motion, the appeal was dismissed. This ruling was excepted to, but no bill of exceptions setting forth the 'grounds of said ruling was filed. In the absence of some proper showing of the reasons or grounds upon which the Court acts, we must presume in favor of that action as has been often decided.

¶2The judgment is affirmed.
