Head Matter:
LAYTON v. POLK.
Supreme Court. Kent.
October, 1814.
Clayton’s Notebook, 34.

Opinion:
These causes came on today together.
Per Curiam.
It appears upon the face of the records that the cause of action was divided in order to recover the money before a Justice of the Peace, the Whole of the demand being above £12, which is not allowable. The proceedings are therefore erroneous.
Ex relatione Mr. Clayton.
Judgments reversed.
