Searle v. City of Lead

Opinion of the Court

Haney, J.

The judgment of the circuit court in this action having been affirmed (10 S. D. 312, 73 N. W, 101), defendant and appellant now appeals from the clerk’s taxation of costs. The plaintiff and respondent made no argument, either oral or printed. She should have been allowed five' dollars “before argument,” but nothing “for argument.” Comp. Laws, § 5187. The clerk is directed to deduct the sum allowed for argument, and, as thus modified, the taxation is affirmed.
