Curtis v. Petitpain

THIS case was brought up by writ of error from the circuit court of the United States for the eastern district of Louisiana. It is stated in the opinion of the court.

It was argued by Mr. Taylor, for the plaintiffs in error, and Mr. Benjamin, for the defendants.

The point of practice, upon which the case went off, was raised by Mr. Benjamin, who contended that the transcript was not such a complete record as was required by the 11th and 31st rules of court.

The points made relating to the merits of the cause are omitted.

Mr. Justice CAMPBELL delivered the opinion of the court.
