Sawyer v. New York State Clothing Co.

58 Vt. 588 | Vt. | 1886

The opinion of the court was delivered by

Rowell, J.

As there was no such corporation as The New York State Clothing Company, the suit was originally against nobody. Halbert v. Soule, 57 Vt. 358. Hence, delivering a copy of the writ to Cane, the supposed treasurer of such a corporation, brought nobody into court; and there being originally no defendant, it was not competent to make one by amendment.

Judgment reversed and cause dismissed.
