District of Columbia Court of Appeals · Decided April 15, 1874 · Cartter
8 D.C. 496

Claxton v. Adams

Opinion of the Court

Cartter, C. J.,

delivered the opinion of the court:

The objection to the admissibility of a deposition as evidence in a cause should be made by motion to suppress before going into trial. The objections in this case, therefore, came too late, even if they would have been good on a motion to suppress; but if called upon to pass upon the sufficiency of the objections, the court is inclined to the opinion that the same are not well taken. Judgment affirmed.
