Salter v. Ivey
34 Ala. 557 | Ala. | 1859
The proceedings in this case were exceedingly informal. But we think it sufficiently appears that this was intended as a prosecution, under section 1172 of the Code, by the apportioner, in the name of, and for the benefit of the county. In such a case, the apportioner who makes the return, and on whose complaint the summons is issued, ought not to be held responsible for the costs.
Judgment affirmed.
