Cromie v. Van Nortwick
Cromie v. Van Nortwick
Opinion of the Court
delivered the opinion of the Court:
. This case falls within the rule stated in Hartford Fire Insurance Co. v. Vanduzor, 49 Ill. 489, and is controlled by that case.
The action of the court in overruling the motion to transfer the .case to the United States circuit court, under the act of congress of 1866,. is not made a part of the record by any certificate of the judge .who heard the cause on the circuit. The bond required to be presented at the time of making the motion does not become a part of the record simply by being filed by the clerk and copied into the transcript of the proceedings in the cause. This court has repeatedly decided that papers filed in a cause, but not made exhibits by the bill or answer, do not become a part of the record unless made so by the proper certificate. ....
In this case, neither the motion nor the accompanying papers are preserved in the record in the form required by the practice in this court, and we can not, therefore, review the action of the circuit court in refusing to transfer the cause to the United States circuit court. The decree must be affirmed.
Decree affirmed.
