Ohio Supreme Court, 1833

Hosmer v. Williams

Hosmer v. Williams
Ohio Supreme Court · Decided June 15, 1833
1 Ohio Ch. 355

Hosmer v. Williams

Opinion of the Court

By the Court.

As to all the matters that are set forth in the bill of exceptions, and which only appear there, we can take no notice of them, because the bill of exceptions forms no part of the record. It has been repeatedly decided, that if a party would avail himself of a bill of exceptions, he must have jt recorded under our law; 29 O. L. 75.

The other error is fatal. Our statute of amendments limits the right to amend to some time before writ of error brought, and does not extend beyond; 29 O. L. 77. We have no power to amend, or to disregard even matters of form, after writ of error.

The judgment is reversed, in all things, since the finding of the verdict, and remanded for further proceedings.
