Indiana Supreme Court

Decided December 12, 1853

Indiana Supreme Court · decided 1853-12-12

<p>Courts of Common Pleas have not jurisdiction, under the R. S. 1852, over oifences committed before the act establishing said courts took effect.</p>

Decided 1853-12-12

Stuart, J.

¶1It appears that the assault and battery complained of was committed two months prior to the taking effect of the act to establish Common Pleas. The Court, on motion, correctly dismissed the complaint for want of jurisdiction. Section 3, c. 92, vol. 1, R. S. 1852.

Per Curiam.

¶2The judgment is affirmed.
