Kuehn v. Neroz
Kuehn v. Neroz
Opinion of the Court
Counsel present the case as if the proceedings before the justice in the replevin action were a part of the record in the garnishee action as it was closed in the circuit court, and were before us as a part of the judgment roll on this appeal. That is a mistake. The garnishee action
In Butler v. Gillis, 104 Wis. 421, 80 N. W. 735, quite a similar situation to that here was presented. The action was commenced in the municipal court of Douglas county. It was carried by appeal from the judgment there rendered to the circuit court for such county. In the latter court there was a motion based upon the papers in the case and others for a judgment reversing the judgment of the municipal court, in part, and the motion was granted. On appeal to this court there was no bill of exceptions incorporating into the record matters outside the judgment roll proper. The judgment was affirmed, the court holding that it could not look beyond such judgment roll to test the validity of the judgment. Jos. Schlitz B. Co. v. Washburn B. Asso. 122 Wis. 515, 100 N. W. 832, is to the same effect.
From the foregoing it will be seen that in order to enable appellant to show here that the judgment of dismissal could not be justified by jurisdictional defects in the replevin proceedings and execution, the same should have been incorporated into the bill of exceptions, and in order to enable respondents to show the contrary, since a bill of exceptions was settled purporting to relate all that occurred on the dismissal, it was important that such proceedings and execution should not be omitted therefrom.
As the matter stands we have only the judgment roll in the garnishee action before us. The bill of exceptions, as stated, does not add anything material to the record. Such roll does not disclose any substantial defect. On the oral ar-
By the Court. — The judgment is reversed, and the cause remanded for further proceedings according to law.
