People ex rel. Musgrove v. New-York Common Pleas
9 Wend. 429 | N.Y. Sup. Ct. | 1832
By the Court,
The motion must be granted. This court will not permit subordinate tribunals to be harassed with special demurrers to returns made by them. If the relator is dissatisfied with a return made, conceiving it to be evasive, or the construction of any matters alleged in it to bo of doubtful character, upon suggestion of its insufficiency, a further or supplementary return will be ordered, and thus the rights of a party as effectually protected as if permitted to demur specially.
