Fleming v. . Halcomb

Opinion of the Court

Ruffin, C. J.

It has often been decided by this Court, that every judgment is presumed to be right, unless it appear to be erroneous ; and that it is the duty of the appellant to have the matter stated on the record, upon which he insists there is erroF — else the judgment müst be affirmed as a matter of course. No error thus appearing to have been committed at the trial, and none being seen in the pleadings or record, properly so speaking,- we suppose the appeal was merely for delay. At all events there seems to be no ground for reversing the judgment, and therefore it is affirmed.

Per Curiam, Judgment affirmed.
