Watkins v. Edgar
94 Mo. App. 285; 68 S.W. 87; 1902 Mo. App. LEXIS 559
Watkins v. Edgar
Opinion of the Court
The validity of the adoption of the amendment of the Constitution, authorizing nine jurors to find a verdict in a civil suit, was raised by the appellant in the trial court and a ruling of that court adversely to his contention was made, the verdict having been rendered by nine of the twelve jurors.
We find a constitutional question is raised by appellant, which was decided adversely to him; therefore, we transfer the ease to the Supreme Court for its disposition.
