United States Supreme Court

74 U.S. 692

James  v.  Bank.


The regular course, in cases of this description, is to affirm the judgments. The appeal is regularly here, an cannot be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. The motion, therefore, must be DENIED.

Counsel for the appellee has referred us to an order dismissing a writ of error at the last term, under circumstances like those of the case before us. This order must have been entered through inadvertence, and cannot be drawn into a precedent.
