Brooks v. McLellan
1 Barb. 247 | N.Y. Sup. Ct. | 1847
The rule for holding to bail in actions of tort is, that in all cases where a judge’s order is necessary, something more must be stated in the affidavit than merely a cause of action. Some special cause must be shown in addition, such as, that the defendant is a non-resident, or that he is about to depart out of the state, and the like. A resident of the state cannot, in such cases, be held to bail, unless evidence is pro
Order discharged.
