APPEAL OF DEATH

Authors

Abstract

A note from Mr. Justice Riddell says: "In my paper, 'Appeal of Death and Its Abolition.' 24 MICH. L. REV. (June, 1926) at p. 793, it is said, 'when the widow was Appellor, the issue was tried by a jury because a woman could not fight.' While this was generally true, the statement indicating universality was made per incuriam of course, the trial was sicut curia consideraverit; and sometimes Battel was awarded in the case of a woman-appellor.
