Judgment to
have effect, &c. |
An ACT to empower the judges of the court of appeals to reinstate
the cause of Job Garretson against Richard Cole.
WHEREAS it is represented to this general assembly, that the case depending
in the court of
appeals of Job Garretson against Richard Cole, at June term, seventeen
hundred and ninety-nine,
was decided without argument, by reason of the indisposition of the appellant's
council, and it
is stated that the decision of said cause involves principles of great
consequence to the titles to real
estate: And whereas the court of appeals have expressed their regret
that the law of last session
did not authorise them to reinstate said cause for the purpose of hearing
an argument thereon, and
have intimated their willingness and desire that the same should be reinstated,
II. BE IT ENACTED, by the General Assembly
of Maryland, That the judges of the high court of
appeals may and they are hereby authorised and empowered, on motion, at
their next session, to reinstate
the cause of Job Garretson against Richard Cole, if in their judgment and
opinion, under all
the circumstances of the case, the same would tend to do justice between
the parties.
III. AND BE IT ENACTED, That the judgment or
decision of the court of appeals, in the event
of their reinstating said cause, shall have the same effect and operation
as if it had been rendered and
given at June term, seventeen hundred and ninety-nine, any law, judgment,
usage or custom, to the
contrary notwithstanding. |
