Kankakee & Seneca Railroad v. Straut
Illinois Supreme Court
Kankakee & Seneca Railroad v. Straut, 101 Ill. 653 (Ill. 1882)
Walker
Kankakee & Seneca Railroad v. Straut
Opinion of the Court
The 12th section of the Eminent Domain act, in express terms, gives the right of appeal in cases of this character, directly from the trial court to this court. We do not think anything contained in the Practice act should be held to operate as a repeal of that section. The appeal was properly taken from the county court to this court.
Motion denied.
