COMMON PLEAS-GENERAL TERN.

DISBARRING q. w. MILES,
Before Chief Justice DAILY and Judges Robinson
and J. F. DAILY.
George W. Niles In 1851 was convicted Of OBTAIN
Ing money through false pretences and sentenced
for two years and six months TO state Prison.
Being lawyer his case was brought to the notice
OF the Supreme Court, General Term, Judges, and
they at once, as claimed, dlsbarred him. though he
insists that proceedings to this END only were
taken, but that an order to disbar him was never
issued. Under this alleged state OF facts and de-
csion OF Judge Cerke that he was still entitled to
PRACTISE his profession, he continued 70 do 80,
though with occasional occurrences OF opposi-
ton, after his release from State Prison.
Recently, in a suft. appealed from the Marine
Court to this Court, this opposition took
u more decided and persistent form. The result
was an order directing him TO show cause why he
should be permitted to practise Ia the courts. An
elaborate opinion was given yesterday in the case
by Chief Justice DAILY. he records OF the Court
at the time having Oeen destroyed by IRE, the
Chief Justice begins his opinion by citing "de-
tailed account oil what occurred" as published in
the NEW YORK HERALD OF February 8, 1851. Alter
gong over all the facts OF the case Judge Daily
says that his ''conclusiOn Is that Niles was de-
prived OF his office OF Attorney and Counsellor OF
the supreme Court by proceeding In all respects
regular and valid; that ne has not been readmt-
ted and that he is not entitled to practise IN this
or IN any other court in this State" Judge
Robinson gave an opinion holding the same views,
and both were concurred in by Judge J. +. DAILY.
