Torrence v. Van Emburg, 2 N.J.L. 106 (N.J. 1806).

Opinion

By the Court.

— Here was a trial in the absence of the defendant, and no witness examined; the state of demand was not susceptible of proof in any other way than by witnesses, or the confession of the defendant. The defendant not being present, could have made no confession. So that here is a judgment, without evidence. It must therefore be reversed.
