Roberts v. Kelly
2 Hall 307 | The Superior Court of New York City | 1829
The Court gave judgment for the plaintiff on the demurrer, upon the ground that the rejoinder was a departure from the plea. They held also, that the replication was defective for duplicity, but that this defect, being one of form merely, could not be noticed except upon a special" demurrer,—as the rule, that the court will give judgment against the first defect in pleading, applies to defects is substance only.
