Head Matter:
No. 10,451.
McIlvain v. The State, ex rel. Emery.
From the Marion Circuit Court.
W. H. Martz, for appellant.
W. W. Woollen and L. T. Dillman, for appellee.

Opinion:
Woods, C. J.
The appellant disputes the constitutionality of so much of the law concerning prosecutions in cases of bastardy as requires the imprisonment of the defendant upon his failure to pay or replevy the judgment rendered against him. We do not consider the question an open one. Lower v. Wallick, 25 Ind. 68; Ex parte Teague, 41 Ind. 278 ; Reynolds v. Lamount, 45 Ind. 308; Turner v. Wilson, 49 Ind. 581.
Judgment affirmed.
