Cullen, , Layton, for the rule., Cullen, contra., Layton

Hudson v. Pettijohn

Opinion of the Court

The Court

discharged the rule, on the ground that the admissibility of the transcript in evidence was not objected to at the time; and though it was not strictly regular to read this paper, or take it from the bar; the one was done without objection, and the latter was not likely to produce such an influence as to vitiate the verdict.

If a verdict should be set aside for the introduction of any evidence, however unimportant, and admitted without objection, it would be scarcely possible for any verdict to stand.

Rule discharged.
