    Wm. A. Gum, d. b. a. v. Wm. D. Adams, Assignee of Chas. H. Richards, p. b. r.
    
      Justice of the Peace—Appeal.
    
    No appeal will lie from a judgment rendered by a Justice of the Peace upon the confession of the defendant.
    
      (Sussex,
    
    
      April, 1890.)
    
    Motion to dismiss the appeal.
    The record showed that the Justice of the Peace had jurisdiction ; that the requisition of the statute with regard to process had been complied with; that the defendant had, on the day fixed for the hearing, appeared and confessed judgment for the amount of the demand ; and that judgment had been rendered by the Justice on, the confession.
    
      Robinson and Boyce, for defendants,
    Contended that a Justice of the Peace is authorized to enter a judgment when after due process the defendant appears and confesses judgment [Dickinson v. Horn, 3 Harr., 496; 3 N. J. L. 992]; that no appeal should be allowed from a judgment rendered by a Justice of the Peace upon the confession of the defendant, (Murfree’s Jurisdiction of Justices, §601); and that such confession by the defendant operated as a release of error.
   The appeal was dismissed.
