Commonwealth v. Skeeters

Opinion
Opinion by
The demurrer to the petition in this case was properly sustained. If the bond is good for'any purpose, and we think it is not, it is good for only a common-law obligation, and can be proceeded upon only in a court having civil jurisdiction. The jurisdiction of the Hardin Criminal Court was exclusively criminal, and this being a civil proceeding there was no jurisdiction. Morgan v. Commonwealth, 12 Bush 84.
