Ah Chu v. Sung Kwong Wo Co.
Hawaii Supreme Court
Exceptions prom Rulings op McCully, J. There is no time limited within which a bill of exceptions, from, an order denying motion for new trial, must be presented. A bill of exceptions, referring to the Judge’s minutes for the evidence, though informal, is not improper. Exceptions can be taken from an order refusing a new trial.
