GROFF against GROFF.
    OH CERTIORARI. -
    A guardian may be appointed for infant plaintiff, after process issued.
    The counsel for the plaintiff in certiorari, moved to reverse the judgment of the justice.
    1st. For that the name of the plaintiff below was not in the caption to the state of demand; but only that of the defendant.
   By the Court.

It is marked on the back by the justice, “plaintiff’s state of demand;” that is sufficient to designate it.

2d. It was then contended that the action was brought by an infant, and the process sued out in his own name, without a guardian or prochein ami.

[f]

By the Court.

It is the common practice; it is sufficient if the guardian or prochein ami is appointed before declaration; and this has been regularly done in both cases.

Let judgment be affirmed.
