Byers v. Butterfield
Supreme Court of Missouri
Byers v. Butterfield, 33 Mo. 376 (Mo. 1863)
Bay, Other
Byers v. Butterfield
Opinion of the Court
delivered the opinion of the court.
Upon the trial of this cause in the court below the plaintiff obtained a judgment, whereupon the defendant, in due time, filed his motion for a new trial, which motion was sustained. The plaintiff then moved to set aside the order of the court granting a new trial, which was overruled. The plaintiff then took a voluntary nonsuit, and now appeals to this court.
The action of the court below in granting a new trial was not a final judgment or decision, and no appeal lies from it.
Let the appeal be dismissed.
