Mitchell v. Marshall County Livestock Market, Inc.
Alabama Court of Appeals · Decided March 13, 1945 · Carr
21 So. 2d 446; 32 Ala. App. 42; 1945 Ala. App. LEXIS 326 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Mitchell v. Marshall County Livestock Market, Inc.

Opinion of the Court

CARR, Judge.

In this case the purported assignments of error are typed on a separate sheet of paper and attached to a page of the transcript with two metal fasteners, ordinarily known as gem clips.

Supreme Court Rule 1, Code 1940, Tit. 7 appendix, provides: β€œIn assigning errors, it shall be sufficient to state concisely, in writing, in what the error consists, which assignment must be written upon the transcript * *

For the sake of the security and permanency of the records, the appellate courts have cautiously guarded the requirements of this rule. Skinner v. Jackson, 28 Ala.App. 227, 182 So. 92; Pugh v. Hardman, 151 Ala. 248, 44 So. 389; Hunter v. Louisville & N. R. Co., 150 Ala. 594, 43 So. 802, 9 L.R.A.,N.S., 848; E. W. Gates Lumber Co. v. Givens, 181 Ala. 670, 61 So. 330; Moon v. Butler & Co., 9 Ala.App. 438, 62 So. 1019.

The judgment from which this appeal is taken will be affirmed for want of assignments of error as required.

Affirmed.
