Van Lew v. King

This Court, adopted the reasoning of Judge Irving in the. Court below; and gave their opinion that he was right in allowing the plaintiffs their costs ; that as to all actions in which the plaintiff recovers upwards of 25 and less than $50, though they be cognizable before a Justice, the Common Pleas of the city of New-York has concurrent jurisdiction, not only of the subject matter, but of the costs.
