Bailey v. Warden

20 Johns. 129 | N.Y. Sup. Ct. | 1822

Per Curiam.

We have decided that an attorney is not good bail, if excepted to; and, for the same reason, we think a Sheriff ought not to become bail; and such is the rule of the English Courts, which do not allow any person concerned in the process of the Court to become bail. We, therefore, grant the motion, ^(a)

Motion granted.
