Rudd v. Long
New York Supreme Court
Decided February 15, 1809PublishedCited by 1 opinion
A JUDGMENT of non-pros having been entered against the plaintiffs in this cause, it was submitted to the court, whether, as executors, they were bound to pay costs.
1Per curiam
It is well settled, that an executor or administrator must pay costs, on a judgment of non-pros. (3 Burr. 1584—1586. Tidd's K. B. Prac. 898. 6 Term, 654.) It is the default of the plaintiffs, and they ought not to be exempted, in such a case, from the payment of costs.
