Lockard v. Lockard

Supreme Court of Colorado

Decided February 4, 1924No. 10,866PublishedCited by 1 opinion

Action for divorce. Judgment for plaintiff. On Application for Supersedeas. Error to the County Court of Garfield County, Hon. J. W. Bell, Judge.

1Opinion of the CourtJustice Whitford

This is an application for supersedeas in an action of divorce wherein the wife obtained a decree. The only assignments of error are that the findings of the court are contrary to law and not supported by the evidence.

There is no bill of exceptions in the record and we do not know what number of witnesses testified or upon what evidence the court based its finding of facts. The presumption is in favor of the findings and the'judgment of the court.

The plaintiff in error must affirmatively show error in order to secure a reversal of the judgment of which he complains. Kinsel v. Wieland, 38…
