Ripley v. Jaussen

New York Court of Common Pleas

Decided August 1, 1894PublishedCited by 1 opinion

Action by Anna J. Ripley against Virginia Jaussen. J. F. Higgins, for appellant. W. W. Foster, for respondent.

1Per curiam

Error, merely, does not suffice to support an appeal. To authorize a reversal, the error must have operated prejudicially to the appellant. No possible prejudice here resulted from the judgment rendered, for it merely accomplished what appellant was concededly willing to have occur at the time of the trial. The order must be affirmed, with costs.
