• 29 S.C.L. 65

Syllabus

<p>1. A defendant being arrested under a ca. sa. filed a schedule, and at the expiration of the rule, demanded his discharge, which was opposed by the plaintiffs on the ground, that certain effects embraced in it, and stated to be in another State, should be delivered previous to his discharge j but the Commissioner of Special Bail being of opinion that the prisoner had assigned and surrendered to plaintiffs as far as was in his power, the effects of his schedule, and there was no proof that the property in question had been removed with a fraudulent intent, made an order directing his discharge. Motion to reverse the order refused.</p> <p>2. There is no statute giving to this Court appellate jurisdiction from the decision of the Commissioner of Special Bail, except in certain cases, in which a jury has been impannelled and verdicts rendered, to which its jurisdiction is expressly extended by the Act of 1833, (6 Stat. 491.)</p> <p>3. Appeals from inferior tribunals do not follow of course ; although relief may be found in the supervisory powers of a Circuit Court. Vide Carmand vs. Wall, 1 Bailey, 209.</p>
