Opinion
I cannot perceive anything in the act of Assembly which precludes the Sheriff from holding an inquest after the return of the Fi. fa; and I have always understood it to be the [380]*380practice to do so. The present inquisition, being quashed for irregularity, becomes a nullity, and leaves the case just as if none had been taken.
