Analysis
No analysis yet. When one exists it is a model's reading of this opinion — the rulings it reviewed, whether it agrees with the court, and the authorities it checked — shown beside the court's own disposition, never in place of it. How analyses are made.
Opinion
By the Court :
The resolution of the City Council of October 20th, 1873, admitted to have been duly entered on its journal, was equivalent in law to an adoption of the survey, diagram, and specifications before them, made by the City Surveyor and filed with the Clerk, and was tantamount to a prior direction to the City Surveyor to make said survey, diagram, estimates, and specifications.
Judgment reversed and cause remanded, with an order to the Court below to enter a judgment for the plaintiffs upon the admissions of the pleadings, in connection with the agreed statement of facts.
Remittitur forthwith.
