Humphrey v. People

Marston, J. The judgment in this case was rendered in April, 1877, previous to the time the respondent in Dorsey v. The People, 37 Mich., 382, was sentenced, and at a time when it was conceded there was no existing contract which would authorize the confinement of the. respondent in this case in the Detroit House of Correction. The judgment must be reversed and the prisoner be discharged. The other Justices concurred.
