Opinion of the Court

Fish, J.

1. Grounds of a motion for a new trial which are not approved by the trial judge can not be considered by this court.

2. It is not erroneous for the trial judge to refuse to give a request to charge when such request is not in writing.

3. There was no material error in the charges excepted to, the evidence was sufficient to authorize the verdict, and there was no error in overruling the motion for a new trial.

Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concurring.
