Nelson v. Matthews

1 Va. 19

Opinion

Two terms of this Court having elapsed since the appeal was granted by the District Court in this case, Chapman Johnson, for the appellee, moved that it should now be ^docketed, and the judgment affirmed, it being a case for delay. The Court, (consisting of Judges Lyon's, Carrington and Tucker,) upon the authority of the case of Mills v. Black, 1 Call, 241, decided that the judgment could not be affirmed; but dismissed the appeal, with costs._
