Supreme Court of Connecticut June 15, 1812 (State ex rel. Kilbourn v. Tudor)

Ingersoll, J.

This was a motion for a new trial, on the ground of a misdirection to the jury, on a point of law. The suit was an information in nature of a qua warranto, against the defendant, stating that he had usurped the office of first director of the Hartford Bridge Company, and praying that he might be ordered to show by what warrant he held the same.
