24 N.Y. Sup. Ct. 585

Loop v. Gould

New York Supreme Court

Decided May 15, 1879

New York Supreme Court · decided 1879-05-15

The order and papers relating to the examination were served upon the attorneys for the plaintiff but not upon the plaintiff himself.

Decided 1879-05-15

Per Curiam:

¶1The motion made by the plaintiff should have been granted, for the reason that there was no personal service upon the plaintiff of the order requiring him to appear. (See Tebo v. Baker, decided, by the Court of Appeals and reported in the Albany Law Journal, Saturday, May 17, 1879, vol. 19, p. 398.) To subject a party to any punishment in suc*h proceeding it is necessary, as Ave understand the decision referred to, that there should be a personal *586service upon the party of the process requiring him to appear and be examined.

¶2For this reason, we think that the order should be reversed, with ten dollars costs and disbursements.

Present — Brady, P. J., Ingalls and Daniels, JJ.

¶3Order reversed, with ten dollars costs and disbursements.
