Barnett v. Craig

Plaintiff in error was one of several defendants in a suit before a justice of the peace on what purported to be their joint note, and filed a proper plea denying its execution. On appeal the Circuit Court defaulted him and rendered judgment thereon, without a trial by jury or any waiver thereof by him. This was error. Defendant in error has filed no brief here, and the judgment will be reversed for want of it, under the rule.

Reversed and remanded.
