Steelman v. Stewart

2 N.J.L. 317

Opinion

By the Court.

— The report of the referees ought to have been in writing, and entered at large on the justice’s docket. The proceeding resembles as much a trial by a jury of three men as a reference. These short notes of proceedings in justice’s courts are very uncertain and unsatisfactory. Besides, here is no judgment entered. The proceedings must be declared void.
