Syllabus

<p>SYLLABUS BY THE COURT.</p> <p>1. Jury and Jurors — Vitiated Panel — Selection by District Judge. Where it is made to appear to the court that the township trustees and mayors of cities have failed to make lists of persons to serve as jurors, or where the lists furnished by them to the county clerk or the names taken from . the lists and deposited in the jury-box have been so returned or deposited as to vitiate the panel, the duty devolves-upon the district judge to select a sufficient number of jurors for the term.</p> <p>2. - Statute Not Impliedly Repealed. Chapter 117 of the Laws of 1886 was not repealed by the enactment of chapter 236 of the Laws of 1901.</p> <p>3. - Residence of Jurors — Challenge to the Array. The mere fact that the district judge in making such selection fails to select jurors from all the cities and townships of the county is not a good ground of challenge to the array.</p>
