Donovan v. Brown
Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit
Decided December 10, 1941No. 7770PublishedCited by 4 opinions
1Per curiam
On this appeal, appellant objects to the trial court’s charge to the jury, but the so-called bill of exceptions does not indicate that he did so at the trial. The objection comes too late. Martin v. Washington Times Co., 67 App.D.C. 11, 89 F.2d 230. It is a salutary rule that errors which the trial court is given no opportunity to correct will not, in general, be considered on appeal.
Affirmed.
GRONER, C. J., took no part in the consideration and decision of this case.
