Supreme Court of Vermont February 15, 1844 (Hill v. Powers)

The opinion of the court was delivered by

Hebabjd, J.

The plaintiff has demurred to the defendant’s plea in abatement, and urged objections to the plea as being defective in *520form, as well as substance. Pleas in abatement are not the peculiar favorites of the law, and therefore more certainty and strictness is required.
