Rutherford v. Fisher

4 U.S. 22 (____)

4 Dall. 22

Rutherford et al. Plaintiffs in Error,

versus

Fisher et al.

Supreme Court of United States.

CHASE, Justice.

In England a writ of error may be brought upon an interlocutory decree or order; and until a decision is obtained upon the writ, the proceedings in the Court below are stayed. But here the words of the act, which allow a writ of error, allow it only in the case of a final judgment.

By the COURT:

The writ must be quashed with costs.
