Opinion
Spring Sessions, 1836.
Wales, for plaintiff.
Booth, for defendant.
RULE to show cause why a judgment entered against husband and wife, should not be set aside because the warrant of attorney was given by the wife after marriage.
The Court said that the judgment against the wife was void, being confessed on a void authority, as a married woman cannot execute a letter of attorney; and the judgment being a joint one, must be set aside as against both.
Rule absolute.
