    Bail—Recognizance—Bastardy.
    It is doubtful whether there is any authority for the remission of the forfeiture of an undertaking given in bastardy proceedings.
    Motion to vacate judgment entered on forfeiture of recognizance.

Application for remission of a forfeited recognizance and to vacate judgment entered thereon.

Counsel do not refer to any provision of law authorizing the remission of the forfeiture of an undertaking given in bastardy proceedings, and such authority seems doubtful. The matter should be set down for a hearing and the petitioner have an opportunity of presenting any suggestion he may desire to make.

Daly, Oh, J. and Pbyoe, J., concur.
