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
The Court.
The Superior Court did not have jurisdiction to make a decree discharging the alleged insolvents; the schedule was sworn to before a notary public, whereas section 4 of the Act of 1852 required it to be sworn to “ before the judge having jurisdiction,” etc.
The judgment is reversed and the cause is remanded, with instructions to render judgment for plaintiff on the findings.
