18 Johns. 22 | N.Y. Sup. Ct. | 1820
This is plainly a case of submission to arbitration ; it is, in no respect, a reference under the statute. The parties chose to enter their submission upon the minutes of the Court, and to direct the arbitrator to make report to the Court; but all this does not vary the rights of the parties, nor authorize the Court to give judgment immediately on the award.
The submission to arbitration was a discontinuance of the suit.
In the case of Yates v. Russell, in the Court of Errors,
judgment of reversal.
