People v. Poyllon

2 Cai. Cas. 202 | N.Y. Sup. Ct. | 1804

Per Curiam.

Every acquittal must he satisfactory. The malice ought to appear from what passed at the trial, or from *some circumstances, or declaration, out of court. The judge ought to say he thinks a copy ought to be granted.

Colden. The judge who presided at the trial is not now on the- bench, and thinks he cannot now amend the certificate.

Per Curiam. That is no impediment. It may be done |nine pro tunc.

M. B. The certificate being altered according to the direction of the court, the copy was ordered accordingly.

Motion granted.

*#*A counsellor, who has been a judge of this court, is entitled to a seat at the table with the attorney-genera] and officers of the people, or, as the English lawyers would express it, within the bar.
