New York Supreme Court

Decided May 15, 1809

New York Supreme Court · decided 1809-05-15

THIS was an action brought to .recover damages for the non-delivery of certain goods shipped at Liverpool, on board of a vessel, of winch the defendant was master, and consigned to the plaintiff on his own account. The defendant having been held to bail, Griffin, in his behalf, now moved for his discharge, on filing common bail. It appeared that a similar application had been made to the recorder of New-Tork, in the last vacation, who had refused to discharge the defendant.

Decided 1809-05-15

Spencer, J.

¶1This is a new application to this court, founded on a notice, in the usual way; it is, therefore, proper to receive new affidavits.

Per Curiam.

¶2We consider the affidavit of the plaintiff which was read as sufficient, and the motion must, therefore, be denied.

¶3Rule refused.
