Lester v. Martin ( 1823 )

Under the act of 1821, suggestions were filed against judgments, before confessed; which, on being called, were dismissed by the Judge of the Circuit Court. The defendants to the suggestions, thereupon, entered up judgments ■ as. of nonsuit, and issued executions for costs. These executions, on motion before a Judge at Chambers, were ordered to be set aside, and on appeal, it was held that the defendants were not entitled to costs.
