Court Nicholas v. A. J. Oldham.
    Nonresident — Judgment—Appeal—Affirmance.
    A judgment against a non-resident, constructively summoned, can not he affirmed unless by appeal.
    APPEAL PROM JEPPERSON CIRCUIT COURT.
    October 1, 1867.
   Opinion op the Court by

Judge Williams:

Whatever may be the errors in the proceedings against Joseph Knapp, we cannot consider them, because he was only constructively summoned, if indeed so brought before the court, and he can proceed under the Code to re-open and re-try the cause, else prosecute an appeal, but until he proceeds one way or the other, we cannot determine the alleged errors as to him.

We perceive no error in the proceedings or judgment as to appellant, therefore an affirmance must be avoided.
