McChesney v. City of Chicago

Illinois Supreme Court

Decided June 19, 1894PublishedCited by 7 opinions

Writ of Error to the County Court of Cook County; the Hon. Frank Scales, Judge, presiding.

1Opinion of the CourtJustice Phillips

The County Court of Cook county entered a judgment confirming a special assessment on proceedings under an ordinance of the city of Chicago, and this writ of error is sued out on that record. The ordinance under which those proceedings were had was held invalid by this court in Lake Shore & M. S. Ry. Co. v. City of Chicago, 144 Ill. 391. The contention of defendant in error is, that no exception was taken to the order of the court overruling the objections of the plaintiff in error to the confirmation of the assessment roll, and, therefore, error can not be assigned upon such order.
