Share v. Lytle
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
Decided May 24, 1827PublishedCited by 1 opinion
APPEAL. In this case, which was an appeal from the Circuit Court of Lancaster county, Jenkins moved to quash the appeal, because it was not filed after the sitting of the court, on the first of the term to which the appeal was returnable. This is too late. 4 Yeates, 240. 1 Sinn. 76.
1Per curiam
The first day of the term was intended to mean the actual sitting of the court, and this much has been decided; but it is impossible, without violating the law, to carry the construction further. We consider the matter as settled, and therefore direct the appeal to be quashed.
Appeal quashed.
