Commonwealth v. Basendorf
25 A. 779, 153 Pa. 459, 1893 Pa. LEXIS 1129
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania·Decided January 3, 1893·No. Appeal, No. 87·Published·Cited by 10 cases
Opinion
We think the court below was right in entering judgment for want of a sufficient affidavit of defence. The magistrate had the right to take the recognizance, and the short entry of “ Recognizance forfeited, May 5, 1891,” is conclusive in this case that the defendant and the bail were called and did not appear.
Judgment affirmed.
