Hollingsworth v. Duane , 4 U.S. 353 ( 1801 )

4 U.S. 353 (____) 4 Dall. 353

Hollingsworth
v.
Duane.

Supreme Court of United States.

The COURT

After a long advisement upon the subject, seemed to think, that alienage might have been a cause of challenge, before the juror was sworn; but, upon an extensive review of the authorities, they decided, that advantage could not be taken of it, after verdict.

Rule discharged.^[(1)]

NOTES

[(1)] Since the discussion of this case, the marshal has been directed not to return aliens upon the panel; and, in many instances, when aliens have been returned, the state, as well as the federal, Courts have discharged them, upon their own application.
