LAST RESORT
(bouvier) | LAST RESORT. A court of last resort, is one which decides, definitely,
without appeal or writ of error, or any other examination whatever, a suit
or action, or some other matter, which has been submitted to its judgment,
and over which it has jurisdiction.
2. The supreme court is a court of last resort in all matters which
legally come before it; and whenever a court possesses the power to decide
without appeal or other examination whatever, a subject matter submitted to
it, it is a court of last resort; but this is not to be understood as
preventing an examination into its jurisdiction, or excess of authority, for
then the judgment of a superior does not try and decide so much whether the
point decided has been so done according to law, as to try the authority of
the inferior court.
