Where there has been no such judgment, the cause will not be entertained in this Court.\nCase transmitted from Anson Superior Court of Law, at the Spring Term, 1839.\nThis is an action of debt on an award made on the submission of the intestate Jennings, to which the defendant pleaded the general issue. He afterwards pleaded a special plea, since the last continuance, to which the plaintiff demurred. Without any trial of the issue or any judgment on the demurrer, the parties agreed to send the case to this Court for decision on the demurrer, and on certain agreed facts.\nNo counsel for the plaintiff.\nWinston, for the defendant."
