Hutcheson v. Johnson

1 Binn. 59, 1803 Pa. LEXIS 12

Opinion

Per Curiam.

The practice of this court is that a rule to shew cause of action is well served upon the attorney in the suit. It is not necessary that service should be on the plaintiff personally; but if he lives out of the state, the court under proper circumstances will grant time. As such circumstances have been suggested here, the court make the rule absolute unless cause be shewn during the term.
