Description

Subject matter not stated in the APC. A judgment for £500 sterling had been entered.

Brown admitted to bring his writ of error to Maryland Court of Appeals. Washburne, Imperial Control, p.79, notes that Brown had attempted to appeal over the heads of the higher courts of Maryland, a procedural irregularity that the Privy Council generally disallowed.
