Ely v. Karmany

23 Pa. 314
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania·Decided July 1, 1854·Published·Cited by 7 cases

Opinion

The opinion of the Court was delivered by

Lewis, J.

The instrument on which the judgments were entered is, in construction of law, a power given to the prothonotary. He has no better right than an attorney-at-law to enter two judgments under a single warrant. The entry of the first judgment exhausts the power, and in this case the Court committed' no error in vacating the second.

Judgment affirmed.
