Elizabeth L. Chesebro v. David W. Chesebro.
    
      Practice in the Supreme Court: Service of copies. Copies of affidavits served with notice of motion must be true and complete.
    
      Heard and decided October 11.
    
    
      G. A. Armstrong moves to dismiss the appeal in this case for want of prosecution, — and proceeding to read affidavits in support of his motion:—
    
      H. A. Shaw objects, — that there was no jurat to the affidavits, copies of which had been served with the notice of the motion.
    
      Armstrong, in reply: The omission of the jurat was an error in copying; the affidavits were in fact sworn to.
   The Court held that a party opposing a motion had a right to rely on the copies served as true copies; and the copies served in this case being essentially defective, the motion could not be heard.
