Head Matter:
Ex Parte Jedidiah Miller.
This Court will not grant a certiorari for defects of form in establishing a highway, after it has been located, accepted, and made.
This was a motion for a certiorari to the Sessions for this county, grounded on the informality of certain proceedings in that court, relative to the location and establishment of a highway.
Upon the opening of the motion, it appeared that the way had been located, accepted, and actually made.
Padelford and Wood for the motion.
Sproat contra.

Opinion:
The Court
said they would not sustain motions intended to procure proceedings to be quashed for a mere defect in form, after a way had been laid out and opened, and all parties had acquiesced in it; and they denied the motion.
