SEE ALSO 51773 An act making further provision for the trial and punishment of felony ..., 1826 version 2. It was thus lawful for any party
aggrieved by an opinion, direction, or judgment of the Municipal Court to allege exceptions in writing and present them to the judge. If the allegations
conformed to the case, the case was halted until the next term of the Supreme Judicial Court. The Municipal Court would include the exceptions in its
case report. The appellant had to file the record of the case for the next session of the Supreme Judicial Court. The Court would consider the situation
and render a judgment or order a new trial. If the case was not filed in that first session, the Supreme Court notified the Municipal Court of the
failure and then the Municipal Court decision stood. If the appellant was already in jail, s/he had to remain there until the appeal was heard unless
bail was granted. No other appeals from the Municipal Court were allowed. (Digitized from a microfilm copy of title originally held by the
