State v. . Saunders

This Court passes no judgment in criminal cases, except for the costs expended in this Court. It acts directory to the court below, and its power to award costs expended here arises only from construction. Caswell Superior Court will therefore enter up judgment for all costs, except the costs of this Court. The jailer's fees form no part of the costs, consequently they are not to be included in the judgment.
