Decision Date | 04 February 1896 |
Docket Number | 142. |
Parties | Ex parte BUSKIRK. |
Court | U.S. Court of Appeals — Fourth Circuit |
John A Hutchinson, for petitioner.
Maynard F. Stiles and E. L. Buttrick, for respondents.
Before GOFF and SIMONTON, Circuit Judges, and BRAWLEY, District Judge.
Uriah B. Buskirk, the petitioner, was one of the defendants to an action of ejectment pending in the circuit court of the United States for the district of West Virginia, in which Henry C. King was plaintiff. The land in controversy was situated in the state of West Virginia, and it was claimed that Buskirk, with one Mullins, was in the possession of a part thereof. King, on the 31st day of May, 1895, tendered his bill on the equity side of the court, in which he charged that Buskirk and Mullins were preparing to cut and remove large quantities of timber from the land in controversy. The court, at Charleston, on the 31st day of May, 1895, ordered that the bill be filed, which was done, and it appears from the record that no further proceedings were had in said matter, of which an entry was made at the time on the court's records, until on the 12th day of June, 1895, at Charleston, when the following order was made, viz.:
'Henry C. King, Complainant, v. U. B. Buskirk et al., Defendants.
The next order made in said proceedings was on the 27th day of June, 1895, as follows, viz.'
'This cause came on to be heard upon the 20th day of June, 1895, by consent of counsel for the respective parties upon the application and motion of complainant made on the 12th day of June, 1895, for a rule against defendants to show cause why they should not be attached and fined for contempt in violating certain orders and decrees of this court made in this cause, which said order of June 12th is as follows.'
Here follows a copy of the order as given above. At the same time a large number of affidavits made by various parties, and having reference to the cutting of timber on said land by defendants, were tendered and filed. They thus became a part of the record, and were considered by the court below, but in the view that we take of this case it will not be necessary for us to again refer to them.
The defendant Buskirk, on the 27th day of June, 1895, appeared and filed his answer to the motion for a rule, which was in the following words, viz.:
On the 28th day of June, 1895, the following order was made and entered of record, to-wit:
This order was prepared on the 28th day of June, and then entered as a nunc pro tunc order. And on the same day, to wit, on the 28th day of June, 1895, the following order was made and entered of record, to wit:
On the said 28th day of June the court below awarded the rule against Buskirk, to which he appeared and filed his answer on the same day, which was in substance to the same effect as the answer he had filed the day before to the motion for a rule, and which we do not deem it necessary to again set forth. And at another day, to wit, on the 29th day of June, 1895, the following order was made and entered of record in said cause, viz.' 'Henry C. King vs. Uriah B. Buskirk.
