123 A. 883 | N.J. | 1924
This was a certiorari out of the Supreme Court to review an assessment by the city of Paterson for street paving, curbing, water, sewer and gas connections against property abutting on Hamburgh avenue from Union to Katz avenues. The assessment is based on contribution made by the city of Paterson to Passaic county toward the cost of the work. The Supreme Court upheld and affirmed the assessment and dismissed the certiorari.
Prosecutors have appealed to this court and filed four grounds of appeal, all on the reasoning and holding of the Supreme Court, but not alleging that that tribunal erred in the judgment it rendered. We have repeatedly held that when the Supreme Court sits as a reviewing tribunal (as it does in certiorari cases), the only proper ground of appeal is that that court erred in the judgment it gave. State v. Verona,
Errors may be assigned upon the record only and not upon the reasoning in the opinion of the court below. State, Ruckman, v.Demarest,
Because it is not alleged as ground of appeal that the Supreme Court erred in the judgment sought to be reviewed, the appellate jurisdiction of this court is not invoked, and the appeal must therefore be dismissed. *493
