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 :
In our opinion, a Justice of the Peace is one of the officers referred to and styled judicial in § 10 of art. xxii of the Constitution. (See also § 11, art. vi.)
By the provisions of that section, such officer must be “ elected at the time and in the manner that State officers are elected.” This is conclusive of the case. The election of the plaintiff in April last was therefore invalid, and the judgment of the Court below is affirmed.
