Black's Law Dictionary

A motion in error stands on the same footing as a writ of error; the only difference la that, on a motion in error, no service is required to be made on the opposite party, because, being bsfore the court when the motion is filed, he is bound to take notice of it at his peril.

Treadway v. Coe, 21 Co.nn. 283.
