Harkin v. Ferro Concrete Construction Co.

Appellate Court of Illinois

Decided March 5, 1914No. Gen. No. 18,877PublishedCited by 7 opinions

Appeal from the Superior Court of Cook county; the Hon. William Fenimore Cooper, Judge, presiding.

1Opinion of the CourtJustice Gridley

Counsel for plaintiff contend that the judgment is erroneous because the court erred in striking from the files the declaration filed October 28, 1910, and the argument is that this should not have been done for the reason that the declaration did not set up a new and different cause of action from that disclosed in the declaration filed April 22, 1910; that inasmuch as Paul Schmidt died as a result of the injuries the cause of action is the same after his death as it was before his death; and that where the cause of action is the same, amendments pertaining thereto are properly allowed.
