Marble v. Fay
Marble v. Fay
Opinion of the Court
1. Appellant asserts that when the motion for a new trial was granted by the District Judge, no bill of exceptions was on file.
The endorsement on the bill of exceptions in the records is: “Bill of exceptions. Filed for presentation to the Judge of said Court, this 21st day of October, 1873.” (Signed by the Clerk.)
The Judge’s certificate to the bill: “I do hereby certify .that the foregoing statement and bill of exceptions is true and correct, and is allowed. October 27, 1873.” (Signed.)
2. When a new trial is granted by the District Court, on the ground that the evidence does not justify the verdict, we do not reverse the order where, as in this case, there is a substantial conflict in the evidence.
Order affirmed.
Neither Mr. Chief Justice Wallace nor Mr. Justice Niles expressed an opinion.
