State ex rel. Brown v. Lewis

Indiana Supreme Court

Decided May 27, 1835PublishedCited by 1 opinion

In error.

1Opinion of the Court

WHEN a justice of the peace binds a person in a recognisance to the Circuit Court to answer an accusation of bastardy, the original recognisance should be filed by the justice in the Circuit Court.

It is no objection to such a recognisance, that it is entered into by a third'person and not by the party himself.
