Cole v. E. E. Fulton Co.

Opinion of the Court

Mr. Presiding Justice O’Connor

delivered the opinion of the court.

3. Aepeai and error, § 1679*—where variance between summons and statement of claim is waived. Where it was contended on appeal by a defendant that its motion in arrest of judgment should have been sustained for the reason that there was a variance between the summons, naming as defendant certain individuals doing business as a company, and the amended statement of claim, designating the defendant as a corporation, held that inasmuch as the defendant entered its appearance as a corporation to the original summons and statement of claim and subsequently the plaintiff filed the amended statement of claim, designating the defendant as a corporation, to which the defendant filed an affidavit of merits, the defendant’s contention was without merit.
