Lawton v. Swihart

This was a suit commenced upon three pro-

missory notes, previous to the adoption of our new code of procedure, and tried after its adoption. Finding and judgment for the defendant.-

The record shows that a bill of exceptions was taken at the May term, 1855, of the Court, for several alleged errors, and among others for refusing to permit the plaintiff, at the August term, 1854, to amend - his declaration. The record does not show that time was given to prepare a bill of exceptions. It was therefore too late to take a bill at the time this was procured and filed. 2 R. S. p. 115.—Mills v.…
