72 Ky. 317 | Ky. Ct. App. | 1872
delivered the opinion oe the court.
The 4th day of July being recognized as a national holiday (Myers’s Supplement, p. 260), it was erroneous to render a judgment upon the service of a summons executed on that day, unless the case is within some of the exceptions enumerated by sections 733, 734, and 735 of the Civil Code on this subject. Section 735 provides that a summons, subpcena, notice, order of arrest, or injunction may be executed on a holiday, where the officer having the process believes, or an affidavit of the plaintiff or some other person is made to the effect that the affiant believes, that the process can not be executed after such holiday.
The'judgment of the court below is therefore reversed, and the cause remanded for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
