1Opinion of the CourtJustice Gary
The appellee sued the appellant before a justice, and the summons was duly served, but the appellant being the manager of the Prussing Vinegar Company, and the company being indebted to Hass, and the appellant not, he understood and believed that the summons was served upon him as the manager, notified the attorney of the company, and only learned his mistake when it was too late to appeal from the judgment of the justice, so he undertook to appeal by certiorari; but the court, after granting his petition, quashed the writ of certiorari, and from that action this appeal is prosecuted.
