Gilchrist Transportation Co. v. Northern Grain Co.
Appellate Court of Illinois
Assumpsit.—Appeal from the Circuit Court of Cook County; the Hon. Richard W. Clifford, Judge presiding. Heard in this court at the October term, 1903.
1Opinion of the CourtJustice Adams
Appellant’s counsel bases his client’s claim that the judgment should be reversed on three grounds, viz: that the service of the summons on Dennis Sullivan was not service on appellant, for the alleged reason that Sullivan was not appellant’s agent, and, therefore, the court was without jurisdiction; that the court erred in permitting appellee to read counter affidavits in opposition to the motion to vacate the judgment, and that the facts set forth in the affidavits in support of appellant’s motion show that appellant was not guilty of any negligence in respect to the corn in question.
