Supreme Court of North Carolina · decided 1848-12-05

Case transmitted from Anson Superior Court of Law, at the Spring Term, 1839.

He afterwards pleaded a special plea, since the last continuance, to which the plaintiff demurred.

Decided 1848-12-05

Ruffin, C. J.

¶1 The only jurisdiction conferred on this Court, in cases at eommon law, is appellate, after a judgment in the Superior Court. The present cause, therefore, cannot be entertained ; but the parties must proceed in the case remaining in the Superior Court. Each party will pay his own costs in this Court.

¶2 Per Curiam. Judgment accordingly.
