John J. Nathans, Respondent, v. Anthony S. Hope, John Satterly, Surety etc., Appellant.
    (Argued October 6, 1885 ;
    decided October 13, 1885.)
    This was an appeal from an order of General Term, affirming an order of Special Term adjudging the appellant Satterly, who was surety on the undertaking given by defendant on appeal in this action, guilty of contempt in willfully and falsely stating in his affidavit to the undertaking that he was worth a sum specified over and above all indebtedness. The court here held that the evidence was insufficient to sustain the charge, and without considering other questions presented, reversed on that ground.
    
      T. C. Cronin for appellant.
    
      Chauncey S. Truax for respondent.
   Per Pariam
