Burnett v. State
Supreme Court of New Jersey
The writ of error in this case brings up the conviction of plaintiff in error upon an indictment charging him with fraudulently and unlawfully taking and converting to his own use certain money of Margaretta C. Campfield, which was entrusted to his care by her, he being her agent, bailee and servant.
1Opinion of the Court
The opinion of the court was delivered by
Mague, Chief Justice.
It is first contended that the plaintiff in error received manifest wrong by reason of the refusal of the trial court to continue the cause when moved for trial by the prosecutor. The application for continuance was made upon the ground of the illness of plaintiff in error. This objection cannot be considered, for it does not appear that the entire proceedings at the trial are before us, so that we can review them under the act of 1894 (Gen. Stat., p. 1154), and the ruling of the court thereon is not otherwise reviewable.
