English v. Sprague

32 Me. 243

• Court: Supreme Judicial Court of Maine
• Decided: July 1, 1850
• Status: Published

Opinion

Shepley, C. J.

The case is irregularly here. It should have come up by exceptions. In a suit originating in a justice’s court, where the question is upon a demurrer in law, or upon facts agreed, the statute gives no appeal to this court.

Consent of the parties cannot confer jurisdiction.

Action dismissed.
