The People v. the Judges of the Court of Common Pleas in and for the County of Washington.

Headnote

EMOTT moved for an attachment against the defendants for not obeying a peremptory mandamus, commanding them to sign a bill of exceptions.[1] The affidavit did not state the service to have been when the court was sitting, or the persons on whom made.
Champlin,
for these reasons, objected to the application.

It ought to appear, that the persons who were served, were those who ought to have sealed the bill. Nothing can be taken by the motion.
