American Bonding Co. of Baltimore v. Strasburger
Opinion of the Court
The action was brought upon a policy of insurance by which defendant agreed to indemnify Mrs. Theresa Stras-búrger, therein called the “assured,” in the sums of money respectively specified in a schedule therein contained, for one year, “for direct loss by burglary, theft or larceny * * * of any of the property described in the schedule hereinafter given and stated to be insured hereunder, occasioned by its felonious abstraction from the interior of the house, building, flat, apartments or rooms actually occupied by the assured * * * by any domestic servant or employé of the assured, or by any person, or persons, except the assured.”
The complaint alleged that during the period covered by the policy
It is assigned as error that the court denied defendant’s motion to dismiss the complaint made at the close of plaintiff’s case. Having subsequently introduced testimony in its own behalf, defendant waived the exception reserved to such denial.
It is also contended that the court erred in denying defendant’s motion to dismiss the action at the close of all the evidence. No exception was reserved to such refusal, and it cannot be considered.
It is also contended that the court erred in denying defendant’s motion to set aside the verdict and for a new trial; but such denial is not reviewable by appeal in the federal courts.
'All that is left are some exceptions to testimony as to value of the missing articles, which are trivial and unimportant.
The judgment is affirmed.
