Justices of Wayne v. Crawford, 8 N.C. 16, 1 Hawks 16 (1820)

June 1820 · Supreme Court of North Carolina

8 N.C. 16, 1 Hawks 16

The Justices of Wayne v. Arthur Crawford and others.

From Wayne.

If a party to a cause in the Supreme Court die pending the suit there, his representative may be made a party by process from that Court.

Since this case came into this Court, Crawford, one of the Defendants, died; which Mordecai, for the Plaintiffs, now suggested. He then moved for a scire facias against his administrator, to make him a party to the suit here.

Which the Court, after consultation, allowed.
