Decided January 26, 1885.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Mr. J.J. Scrivner for plaintiffs in error.

Mr. John A. Wright, Mr. John F. Hanna and Mr. James M. Johnston for defendant in error.


MR. JUSTICE MILLER delivered the opinion of the court.

It has been repeatedly decided by this court that where no return has been made to a writ of error by filing the transcript of the record here, either before or during the term of the court next succeeding the filing of the writ in the Circuit Court, this court has acquired no jurisdiction of the case, and the writ having then expired, can acquire none under that writ, and it must, therefore, be dismissed.
