Cowperthwaite v. Bruen, 3 Edw. Ch. 339 (N.Y. 1839).

Opinion

The Vice-Chancellor :

The construction of the one hundredth rule must be the same whether the defendant has or has not appeared by solicitor. In no case can the time of service be less than two days. The summons was, therefore, insufficient to bring the party into contempt.

Motion denied, with costs.
