White v. Steele
White v. Steele
Opinion of the Court
Without regard to any question of its sufficiency in other respects, the original complaint in this case, which was filed on the institution of the suit before a justice of the peace, was subject to the de
The record does not set out any amendment to the complaint. The minutes of the proceedings of the court on the day of the trial of the issues of fact in the case contain this recital: “This cause being submitted to the court upon the defendant’s demurrers to the amended counts of the complaint, after being argued by counsel and understood by the court, it is ordered and adjudged by the court that said amended counts be and they are hereby sustained.” As the record does not set out any amended counts, and as the recital just quoted, which is the only reference in the minutes of the court to any such pleadings, does not show a disposition by the court of the demurrers to them, no ruling on a demurrer to any amended count is presented for review.
Reversed and remanded.
