105 Mich. 89 | Mich. | 1895
The relator sued out a writ of replevin for certain goods in the possession of one William A. Bennett. The writ was returned duly served. The defendant in the case appeared specially, and moved to dismiss the proceedings for the reason that the copy of the writ served upon him was not certified by the officer. This motion was granted, and the writ dismissed. Application is now made for mandamus to require the circuit judge to vacate the order of dismissal.
We think the order dismissing the proceedings should be vacated. If there be no appearance, an alias writ should be permitted, to complete the service. Relator will recover costs against the defendant in replevin.
