Goergen v. Schmidt
Appellate Court of Illinois
Motion, to vacate judgment by confession. Error to the Superior Court of Cook County; the Hon. Farlin Q. Ball, Judge, presiding.
1Opinion of the CourtJustice Waterman
This is a writ of error brought to reverse the action of the Superior Court in entering judgment by confession, in term time, in open court, against the plaintiff in error, and in refusing to set the same aside upon his motion.
A motion to set aside a judgment by confession entered in term time, in open court, is an appeal to the equitable powers of the court, and unless it is made to appear that there are equitable reasons for setting aside such judgment, it will be allowed to stand.
