Anderson v. Commonwealth

4 Va. 693
General Court of Virginia·Decided July 15, 1834·Published

Opinion

May, J.

The court cannot look into the alleged errors. There are two preliminary inquiries : Whether a writ of error lies to the proceedings of the county or corporation courts sitting as courts of oyer and terminer ? And if so, whether it may be allowed by this court, or must be by the circuit superiour court of Petersburg ?

[694] The court, without deciding any other question, is of opinion, that a writ of error does not lie from this court to the county or corporation courts. 1 Rev. Code, ch. 67. <§> 26. ___ p. 224.

Writ of error denied.
